One of Romeo's greatest secrets unfolds down Kidder. Kidder is a winding, lonely country road covered with much gravel mimicking tiny railroad
tracks which shifts your vehicle from here to there.
As I look up a wide-eyed doe passes close to the
sign that warns - No Hunting. Trees hoover above
forming natures tunnel in an effort to keep it recluse.
The road ,which has gone forgotten, bears weeds
and brush left unattended for a long period of time.
The evidence can be clearly heard as our car's tires
try to break free from the mire.
In the middle of this eerie existence there is an
ancient cemetary of not more than fifty plots. The
bold wrought iron sign states "Goodrich Cemetary"
and should pronouce no vacancy! I was so entranced
by this cemetary way out in the no where.. For several days that followed I had so many questions
as to who was buried there? I wondered if it was a
small group of friends or a family? Trying as hard
as I could I did a fervent research that left me where
I began. The only true evidence that Goodrich
Cemetary does exist is by going there. Next time I
will bring along my digital camera.
Take Van Dyke Road to 37 Mile and make a left
hand turn. Turn on Kidder Road about a mile up and
make a left. Stay on Kidder and the cemetary will
be on the right hand side before you hit Bordman Rd.
