[squatting dog]

The old man whistling that it was time to get home. You could be 7-8 blocks away and still hear it.

Oh right, neighborhood fathers whistling to get the attention of their children or dogs! For adolescent boys, being able to whistle like that was a sign of growing up.

 

[Geezer Garage]

The sounds of silence, and on the other end, the rumble of a flat head Ford V8.

 

[Pinky]

I miss the sound of the ocean waves rolling in .. and the sound of the 9 p.m. cannon being shot off at
Stanley Park when I lived in Vancouver.

A cannon!

 

[Pinky]

Am I the only person who loves the sound of thunder?

 

[Pinky]

A cannon!

Yes, they have an old cannon that they used to shoot off every night at 9:00 p.m. I don't know if they still do.
Even though we lived far from Stanley Park, it could be heard all over the city.

[RadishRose]

The 6:00 am whistle from a factory mill somewhere. Deep and ghostly. Only if my father woke me up while getting ready for work.

Am I the only person who loves the sound of thunder?

I remember dad taking me to stand outside the front door while the thunder and lightening went mad
but I loved being shielded by dad …
my other 4 siblings , were cowering in the front room with mum
