One thing I don't miss about having a bedroom upstairs is hearing squirrels chase each other all over the roof. Cape cod houses do not have a lot of insulation or soundproofing usually and it would sound like there were horses on the roof instead of squirrels. Got quite annoying in the spring when they were all twitterpated. But the bedrooms are on the main floor in the boy's house, so hey, no more waking up to squirrels!
--- End quote ---
When we added on to our A-frame so we could retire to it, half the addition became a master bedroom with cathedral ceiling, with a peak about 4 feet beneath the peak of the roof. Mice fairly quickly found the crawl space attractive, although our cats probably kept them out of the rest of the house. One night I heard the sounds of something rolling down the ceiling opposite the bed. It was repeated several times. The little bastards were bowling with acorns! What else could it have been?
At the end of a dead-end road with woods on two sides, I figure I'm a sitting duck for intruders. But I've never worried about that. My sensitivity to house sounds makes me feel like the house is an extension of me. Until the next unexpected event.

Carl...I guess bringing it back to the thread, staring down squirrels is funny. The ones at my mom's house scream* at me now when I'm outside because I used to glare at them so much.
*I don't know what to call it. It's too squeaky to be a growl.
