Living in such a digital world, we sometimes get disconnected by the real and audible world around us. I have been listening to the rain today and the singing of the birds recently. I was wondering what the gentlemen at the "Barbershop" enjoy hearing. What do you love to hear? Do certain sounds "bring you back" to a special time? What is soothing or stimulating to your ears?
What Sound Do You Love To Hear?

Lewis's Woodpecker in the woods around dawn. They call to each other - same at dusk.
in the natural world a crackling fire is a favorite sound
My 20 month old grandson trying to talk.
A thunderstorm, my s&w model 29, and there are sounds that are dissapearing like the sound if a rotoary phone when you would dial. The hiss on a lp ect.
For me, a heavy rain storm, a good campfire, and a Fatboy (Harley) are among the top 3 that I am allowed to profess publicly 
ahhh yes the thunderstorm/heavy rain. When I lived in TN I had a porch that magically never got rained on. I would sit out side during the t-storms sipping coffee or tea and it was very relaxing.
Summer's first cicada.
The sudden sizzle of a crepe flipped in the pan.
A whole lot else.

The chime of large old fashioned bells...
Music: xylophone. Something about it.
Nature: crack of thunder and the bass that follows. Swimming at night listening to the rhythm and slap of water as I do lapse. Very meditative. The ocean at night.
But for the most part contrary to this thread...silence. That I enjoy a lot. We're bombarded with music and noise from the time we get up to sleep and it gets old.

Silence.
Loons, somewhere off in the mist on an Adirondack lake.
Rain on the roof; it reminds me of summers with my grandparents and sleeping in the cabin.
Train whistles always remind me of my youth, playing on the tracks near my grandparents' house in Michigan. Water lapping on the shore is soothing to my soul. These days that usually means rivers on their banks. Summer rain never fails to bring a sense of peace.
A mountain stream....water running softly over rocks.
A hummingbird hovering nearby my deck.
Thunderstorms.....one of my absolute favorites.....aphrodisiac to my ears.
The sizzle of bacon in cast iron.
The ocean waves crashing into the beach.
The sound my Waterman pen makes as the nib glides across the paper.
The vault like sound that most of my slip joint pocket knives make when I close the blades.
The heartbeat of a mechanical watch.
There are so many wonderful sounds in life it is difficult to choose a favorite but thunderstorms really crank my tractor.

Like many others have said, thunderstorms. Lucky for me I have some rolling in now.
I also like the sound of the woods at 5:00 in the morning as you are slowly creeping to your deer stand.
Another I like is the sound of rain hitting a car and the windshield wipers going slow to medium speed. Especially while stopped at a red light.

I kind of like the sound of trains, way off in the distance at least. Not sure why.
