It may be one of the most annoying sounds when you're trying to fall asleep, but when summer is over and the cold weather begins, you may notice that the crickets are no longer there when your head hits the pillow. Summer is time for male crickets to shine for their female counterparts, which inspires their sweet songs at night.
There are hundreds of boat models of on the market, but what's the one thing they have in common? The sound of the motor on open water and the enjoyment they bring to the summertime season.

There's nothing better than sitting looking up at an open sky celebrating with fireworks.

They may only last three months, but summer sounds are what make this time of year our favorite.
