[StBernard] sounds we love to hear

[Westley Annis]

Your comments made me smile.  We're going to make it--just takes time.  I
have to add to your list--the ice cream truck!  and going to a child's
birthday party.

	When I recalled the first few visits "home", besides the
devastation, there
	was the eerie sound of silence. Not a bird, not a dog, not a car,
not a
	child playing. Dead silence. 
	
	These past few weeks I really appreciated the sounds that I wondered
one
	year ago if I would ever hear again in St. Bernard Parish:
	
	A lawnmower cutting grass
	Children laughing
	Saws cutting 
	Hammers nailing
	Dogs barking
	An owl hooting in the backyard and morning doves cooing
	Squirrels running on top the fences
	People taking their evening stroll
	A school bus 
	A garbage truck 
	A postal truck
	A furniture delivery truck
