Noise Again Today

I went to visit a neighbor on the other side of town today. I spent about 2 hours on their porperty. It was quite, peaceful and very enjoyable there. Then I returned home to my own yard and noticed the difference immediately. Lots of noise again today from the CCA quarry site from down the street. There is loud machinery noise from heavy equipment, the constant beep, beep noise from back up alarms from trucks, a loud mechanical continous tapping sound and an occasional loud banging sound. The thing about this noise is that it is continous all day long with no pauses or stopping. The contrast between the two yards today made me realise how much this neighborhood has already lost compared to other similar neighborhoods in town. The thing is that many people bought their homes here to live where it would be quite, before the quarry came along and changed all our lives.
