Surprise downpour in Phoenix Arizona. Waking up to this rain was amazing and it stayed on for more than a few hours. After taking the dogs out and feeding the beasts, I grabbed a cigar and a cup of coffee and setup outside. The crinkly start to this recording is from taking the cigar out of it's plastic.

I'd run out of butane for my torch, so I used my Zippo lighter instead. A great way to start off this rain storm session.

After getting my cigar lit, I focus the microphone out into the backyard and across the patio. Rain hits the concrete of my backyard patio and some of our patio furniture, while also pooling a bit. Really lovely to have a rainstorm in Phoenix. Being from Indiana, I miss the rain so much living in the desert.

This was a great way to start a relaxing day that was really enjoyable.

Enjoy this as sound to work to or sleep to, or even just relax on a weekend. Excellent white noise and calming effect.

As we closed out the year I had some quiet mornings so I decided to enjoy the Sunrise from my backyard, with a small fire. And I do mean small fire. We recently got a gift of a Solo Stove Mesa, which is around 9 inches tall and 3-4 inches in diameter. It's fantastic for some good heat, quick burn, and doesn't burn for too long.

This morning was cool, about 36 degrees F. So the fire was nice. As the light in the sky starts to get brighter,  the birds are chirping so loud. You can also hear a lot of the traffic starting to pick up outside my neighborhood in Central Phoenix, Arizona.

Enjoy the sounds of the day getting going and some of the crackling of the wood burning in the Solo Stove.

We've had an unseasonably large amount of rain this fall and winter in Phoenix, Arizona. I can't complain, I love it.

This morning was particularly wet as the dog and I went out for her morning stroll around the neighborhood. We typically do about a mile out and about in the mornings. The rain was a bit much for both of us today however so we kept it to only a quarter of a mile.

As you'll hear, the rain was pretty loud in the street and landing on the leaves of trees. A few people are up and about at this hour, but not many.

This was a calm morning, little breeze, aside from that which was carrying the storm thru. Thankfully it wasn't blowing sideways.

You'll notice the dog got a little frustrated with being soaked and shakes off quite a few times. At one point, we had to walk thru a bit of a puddle. Both of us had wet feet after that.

Enjoy the repetitive sounds of us walking on the side-walks in our neighborhood in Central Phoenix. We're lucky to have as many big trees in our area that make for really beautiful walks early mornings in the rain.

It was a weekday afternoon when my neighbors had their lawn care guy come to clean up the yard. The neighbors directly across the street from me use the same guy so he's typically here for 2 hours at a time. He usually does the backyards first, so I waited until he moved on to the front-yards before I hit record.

I grew up with a guy like him. My dad owned and operated a lawn care company back in Indianapolis, IN.

So the sounds, the smells, it all brings me back to my Dad. If he happens to be visiting us when the neighborhood is mowing, we typically sit outside and listen while smoking cigars on the patio.

I find the hum of the engine to be rather soothing and it always puts me into a productive headspace.

As he finishes with the mowing and trimming, then moves on to using a gas powered blower to clean up the debris on the drive and side-walks.

I hope you enjoy this as track as much as I do.

This episode is a compilation of several unique rain clips I’ve captured during my day at South Mountain Park & Preserve just outside of Phoenix, Arizona.

I parked several places throughout the light storm and the rain sounds and pitter patter on the cab was just too good not to build together and share.

This is a great track to sleep to, work to, or relax after a long day. Enjoy the soothing sounds of a light shower rainstorm from the South Mountain Arizona desert mountainsides, peaks, and foothills.

Another great cut from my trip to South Mountain near Phoenix, Arizona. This is my final trip out of the park and back into the city. As before on my way in, the construction zone was a bit of a jog. This part of the trip though was impeded by more than just the construction zone… we also now had to endure the 10 MPH pace following behind a man on a bicycle for 3 blocks.

Not to worry, I was holding up traffic so this poor guy with no jacket or hat or umbrella was getting soaked riding in the street vs. thru the trench of water that used to be the sidewalk.

Only frustrating part here was a guy in a muscled up Ford Ranger decided to drive on the wrong side of the street and go around 4 cars including myself and nearly take out the bicyclist when he cut back over just narrowly missing the bike and the traffic barrels.

Shortly after a passing this man on his bike, I came up to a line of 3 cars behind a street cleaner truck.

Again, as before, I had no reason to not enjoy the ride and the rain.

Join me on my journey home from South Mountain Park & Preserve near Phoenix, Arizona.

As we begin today's session, I'm sitting in a small pull-off between the North and South views of South Mountain. Cars are passing by, people out hiking are chatting amongst themselves.

I decide to start down the mountain and back toward home, but just can't help but listen to the rain and want to share the experience. You'll hear the rain hitting the windshield of my truck as well as my rain jacket. The hard ping or tap is that of the drops hitting the water resistant material. The calm light breeze and the drizzle of the rain cloud floating thru the mountainside was soothing.

I hope you find it just as comforting to sleep to, work to, or just enjoy a good book to.. hopefully by a fire or under a warm blanket.

On a very nice, mild afternoon in my neighborhood our neighbors were mowing their grass and I couldn't help but enjoy it. It was such a calming and relaxing sound, I figured I should share it.

It's autumn in Phoenix, Arizona and the days are very mild and warm, while the nights and mornings are quite cool. Darn right cold for those that have been here for more than a few years.

While my neighbors were finishing their clean up after the lawn mowing, a pigeon decided to join me on the patio. It flew so close to the table I thought it was going to land on me for a split-second. I left the encounter in the recording as the chirping and cooing was pretty nice.

Taking a drive on a Sunday afternoon after getting a haircut and decided to stop and get the truck washed before I take off on another work trip. Join me on this journey around the Uptown area of Phoenix.

Enjoy the sounds of cars honking, the wind as I drive and other cars pass me on the road, and the noises of the brushes, water, soap, and dryers of the car wash. After playing this back a few times, I find it very relaxing. As if I'm now the passenger on this journey.
