The SOUNDS As I Go to Sleep....

[Patty]

I recently moved from a lovely house on a large piece of land in a suburban area, to a condo in an urban area on the Columbia River.

I used to fall asleep to the sound of crickets in my backyard. I had huge blackberry bushes surrounding my property. I grew every fruit and vegetable you can think of in my little suburban piece of paradise and life was excellent...until the stripper joints took over.

The neighborhood became corrupt and drugs were being sold just down the block.

I made the hard decision to get out, buy a new house, and rent my little place to someone who would take care of it.

Fortunately, all of my plans fell into place! I have a tenant who really wants to make the neighborhood a better place and he's doing a good job.

I MISS MY CRICKETS! Can I buy eggs or babies somewhere? I want crickets here at my new home.

Is there a CD of cricket sounds? Should I google this?

What helps YOU sleep?
