Indian Mounds Drive, Part 2

He knew that there were Indian mounds to the south of the road at some point, hence its name, but he was not sure where. His mother had told him that when she was a child, they were open to the public as a city park; children clambered around them, families picnicked at their base, and photos were taken, often comprising plastic headdresses and tomahawk-chop gestures. Around 1980, after years of demonstrations by the ragtag remainder of the local Native Americans, the city was brought around to the idea that a cemetery was perhaps not the most ideal spot for a playground; the parking lot and driveway were removed, the site was restored and re-consecrated in a solemn ceremony, and a high fence was erected. It encircled about a thousand acres (he'd walked the perimeter once), its razor-wired stolidity discouraging the idly curious and the actively malevolent alike.
