Just to sit in nature-on fresh mowed grass or deep into woods after a heavy Summer rain. Control breath so the mosquitoes fly past you because they don’t recognize your presence. Zero in on the sound of a Cardinal singing a different tune as it feeds on your sunflower seeds-that life ending to provide nourishment to babies in the nest.

I have lived most of my life completely off grid. No phone, 60 cycle hum, refrigerator buzz on and off. [Propane refrigerators are silent and last forever. This was in a very remote place that gets extremely cold at times. It is amazing what you hear when there are few distractions beyond wind, horses snorting, dogs farting, tree frogs. It has been a real adjustment to move back to civilization, albeit rural Mexico. A huge advantage is that after forty years of no utility bills, I still don’t use much power, because I am accustomed to operating in darkness when the sun ain’t shining. I have been in my house here for five years and the toilet/shower/etc. have never moved once! How do they do that?

Unfortunately our property is close to a major highway, so we get a tremendous amount of vehicle noise – a constant dull roar. Any comments on how this might effect us and the garden?
