A listener writes “I live in northern Michigan, I’m a usmc and Michigan national guard veteran that served in the desert storm, operation restore hope and operation Iraqi freedom in 2006-07.
I used to be a big time metal detecting enthusiast, digging up colonial artifacts all through out northern Michigan this one summer’s day in 2004 I was deep in the woods by goodhart Michigan and I had been out for several hours, I came across a newborn whitetail fawn and was admiring it and decided to take a water and snack break on a hill all of a sudden I started hearing loud noises as if someone was hitting a 2×4 with a hammer, the noise was coming across another hill with a huge ravine in between, I was curious about the noise so I thought I would go investigate.
I walked all over the section of woods where the noise came from and there wasn’t a single soul in the area and I was puzzled at what the noise could be! Years later after watching finding bigfoot and learning about treeknocks it occurred to me what that noise I was hearing!”
