We recently moved the country to an old homestead.

Normally we like the quiet, but we are really starting to get freaked
out by the sounds of a car door slamming.

it's amazing how sensitive our hearing is. especially when
things are truly quiet. train car coupling can easily be
heard for miles. as can the dropping of a dumpster by
it's handler truck.

of course, if you have kids, they're likely the cause. :-)
