I say, 'shhhh, bells'.

I live within the sound of church bells, but of course they are the modern variety.<br /><br />I remember hearing church bells in a small Austrian town with my husband. They sounded marvellous echoing throughout the mountain valley. The amazing thing was that he could identify the artisan who made them, from their distinctive sound. Apparently, they had escaped the fate of many bells that had gone to the foundries to be melted down during the war.<br /><br />Come to think of it, that was also one of the most peaceful places I remember from our trip in 1993. You are right about the noise pollution that we have to endure nowadays, much of it of our own making!Hazelnoreply@blogger.com
