August 1999

It was about 2:00 a.m., I was playing solitaire at the kitchen table when I heard a series of low, resonant yelling turning into high pitched screams. Immediately, I recognized the call as it has been described to me so many times by my dad and mom, and aunt and uncle. I'm 54 years old and I finally heard it! I'm thrilled! I'll never forget it. I've been going to this region since 1946. I'm thrilled!
