It's amazing how noise travels in the summer. When I was a kid in the late '70s, we had neighbors - a husband and wife named J. and E., who used to argue all the time and yell at each other. Mostly it was the wife who did all the yelling. Our kitchen window was close to their house, but didn't face their house so mom used to stand at the open kitchen window and listen to their arguments (you could hear every word, she might as well have been in the same room with them). One time the wife yelled out "And you think you're so good in bed??? Well you're not!". I don't think she eavesdropped much more after that, it was a pretty awkward moment..
