We live in a place full of noise. Everywhere we go there is noise. Music, sound effects, voices, clicking, typing, ringing, banging, and booming. There is a whole world of sounds just waiting to be discovered. Lucky for us, we live 40 minutes away from one of the biggest towns in America, where there are constantly places to listen to the sounds that has already been discovered.
