Episode 260 – The Sound of Silence

The soft rushing sound in the background of the segment that opens and closes this podcast is the sound of the river. In spite of the cause of it—i.e., an abnormal amount of rain this spring and summer—I still love that sound. It’s the fact that I can hear it from my bedroom along with the wildlife and the wind in the white pines above my house that’s kept me from putting in the air conditioner so far this summer.
