Something Says You're Home

Introduction by Phil

If you listen very closely, the souvenirs that you gathered over your lifetimes and placed in your home might whisper their history to you.
Can you hear them?

   The actual song itself is available only in spoken form, as requested by Philip.

Response by John

I love that last GEM recorded by Phil, entitled Something Says You’re Home.

We each have our own things in our home. And in my home, it is the sound of the pitter patter of my little Shih Tzu. In the morning when she comes to wake me up, and in the evening when she is walking around, no matter where I am, we can hear that little pitter patter.

Or the sound of this piliated woodpecker that’s about a foot and a half tall, no matter which room I am in the house, I can hear her outside – that beautiful call she makes.

Or it’s the sound of water running through my water baseboard heater. There’s one pipe that it just seems to clank, tighten or loosen, but if I don’t, because I love that sound, and know when I hear that, I’m home.

I love the way he captured the sounds of our home. It’s very warm to the heart to know you are home.

What did Dorothy do? Click her heals three times. She wanted to go home. I am not Dorothy and I am not clicking my heels. I’ll grab a beer first and sit down and listen to my piliated woodpecker.
