It wasn't as bad as I anticipated. They were decent.

Great News!

Shad, you are on a list now!!!!! Any apartments coming up for rent after scaring the "life" out of people?

Everybody I've spoken to here has set the fire alarm off at least once.

Given people's hearing tends to diminish as they age, I presume the intent was that one could have louder speakers in a building full of older folks.

The problem with us more senior people and sound is we gradually hear fewer of the higher frequencies. I can hear from 18 Hz to a bit over 11kHz now. This means we are still sensitive to bass and sub bass frequencies and of course, because I can still hear these frequencies I want to hear all of what I can.
The flat isn't too bad down to around 90Hz apart from a node at 300Hz. It's these low frequencies that travel through the buildings structure.

I have asked repeatedly of my next door neighbour and my neighbour below if the music has disturbed them; so far everything is fine.

I'm good. I plug in my headphones after 10pm.

Lot's of fun in the Cafe this morning.
I have set off a few smoke alarms over the years.
Never had the fire department show up over it.
Only lived in a apartment once for like a year.

All the estates run by the people who run the block I live in have this direct to the fire station system. They got to my flat in six minutes.

Glad that things went well.

They are coming for breakfast in the morning before they head back home. It's about 8 hours for the son and 5.5 for the daughter. He drove to her house and they left from there to come up.

I went and got a load of hay today, hope the goats like it. Then i stopped at a river and looked for rocks. It was lovely.

 

[DobieLover]

Good morning Cafe. Coffee is ready.

 

[sourland]

Good morning, Cafe', and thanks for the coffee.

 

[Sally PB]

I sure could use some more coffee, thanks!

Warmer, in the 40s today. Gloomy, but after 2 days of sunshine, I guess that's fair. Our road is going to pack down to ice. It'll take several days to melt it off.
