Who knew?

The ancient Kickapoo River bluffs are greatly improved by a thumping stereo system, firecrackers, and loud whoops (offered in sort of a backwards drunken stagger). The bluffs reverberate the sound for about a half a mile up and down the river, so (democratically) everyone gets a chance to hear.

When we canoed the river, we just floated along the cool bluffs in silence, so amazed by their ancient presence that we often bumped into the walls because we didn't want to hear our paddles. But we were newcomers, and we didn't have the proper examples offered by two groups on the river.
