Ambient Sounds of Arizona

While on a recent work trip to San Antonio, Texas, I was in need of a relaxing hot shower after a long day. This hotel is old. One of the oldest in San Antonio and also one of the most haunted. While I didn't experience any ghosts myself, the ambiance and decor, the layout of the rooms, and even some doors that appeared to lead to nowhere made the experience one that I will not soon forget. Enjoy this shower with me and let it lull you to sleep or relax you while you work. The sound of running water

Visiting a resort for a recent work event, I took a walk in the Arizona desert and the sounds were so inspiring I had to share with you. It's about 5am and the sun is nowhere in sight. The wind is blowing and the air is cool and crisp at around 51 degrees Fahrenheit. I began my walk on the West side of the property and did a loop around the whole thing. Took me around 40 minutes to walk at a leisurely pace. During my journey I came across a running stream that circumnavigates the property and there

A cool night in the Valley of the Sun, we opened the house up as we ready for Fall. Autumn in Phoenix is more like a cool summer day or night from the Midwest. Originally from Indiana, I know this feeling very well. Not cold enough for a fire, but just right for a light jacket or hoodie, some warm socks and bit of bourbon neat. You'll hear the helicopters flying by every once in a while, but mostly you'll enjoy the calm winds flowing through the house and the occasional cricket chirp or a bird

Nearly every Sunday, for years, we've gone to a local restaurant for breakfast. Since starting this audio adventure, this is the first edition of breakfast out. Enjoy the sounds of the kitchen preparing meals, dishes and utensils clanging about, and some light conversation from the cooks. Join us for this Sunday breakfast adventure. Next time you're in Phoenix, stop by Lucy's at the Orchard for an delicious breakfast and fantastic experience... inside or outside on their patio, or underneath the

As we began preparing our ingredients for dinner, the thunder started to roll and the rain began to fall. We decided to open up the house and enjoy the cool breeze, sounds of rain and thunder, and see the lightning dance across the sky while we started to cook. A wonderful decision as you'll hear. This was one of the biggest storms we've had all monsoon season, at least in central Phoenix. Something we absolutely love. We had some champagne to sip on as well and took more than a few moments to step

It's a rainy, cloudy day here in Phoenix, Arizona. The perfect weather for chili. So that's what we did. We made chili and I'm sharing those sounds with you. The boiling, bubbling chili on medium high heat will hopefully help you focus while you are living your life. I missed the part of adding the ingredients into the pot, but you'll hear all the boiling, stirring, and even plating after it finishes cooking. --- Phoenix, Arizona | Soundscapes | Cooking sounds | Chili | Boiling liquid --- Support

In this week's episode a storm was rolling through Phoenix and as I took my dog out to watch the clouds, I figured I'd have a cigar and enjoy the breeze. The crazy thing was, even though the clouds pretty much East and West of us looked gnarly... we didn't get anything but a few drops of rain. Elsewhere in the Valley, it poured. Trees came down from the wind. Scary stuff. Hope you come to enjoy this afternoon wind, smoking a cigar, and play with our pup. --- Phoenix, Arizona | Soundscapes | Wind
