Sounds we hear at our Mexican house
- The Scott Joplin tune that heralds the truck selling ice cream and other snacks, off and on during the day
- "Zeta G-A-S!!!... honk honk...Zeta G-A-S!!!... honk honk...Zeta G-A-S!!!... honk honk...Zeta G-A-S!!!... honk honk...Zeta G-A-S!!!... honk honk...Zeta G-A-S!!!... honk honk..." can be heard from early morning till pretty late. The gas is propane and as most smaller homes only have one tank they need it fast.
- Kids playing, usually quite a jolly sound
- Fireworks, often
- Recorded exhortations early Sunday morning which for a long time I thought came from the church but gradually realized it was a truck driving around selling a miracle health cure
- A brass band practicing, frequently... they aren't right now and I kinda miss them
- Neighbors playing radios or CDs, usually Mexican romantic tunes or mariachi
- Lots of thunder in the rainy season
- The occasional large airplane flying low on approach to the Guadalajara airport
