When you have a chance to visit the Terrific Town of Manistee, you
might want to take a short side trip to Benzie County Michigan.
Many hundreds of people make the drive to Blaine Township to
experience a spot where gravity seems to go haywire. You can
take either Hwy. 22 or Hwy. 31 and turn onto Joyfield Rd.
Tavel along until you get to Putney Rd. You will see 110+ year
old church there and the site of a ghost town. Turn south on
Putney and you will see the scene at right.

I visited this spot last year just to test things out and can
tell you that you should keep your foot near the brake pedal.
Drive downhill until you nearly reach the curve and can see pine
trees on your right. Stop your car and put it in neutral.
Be prepared for a surprise.
My car literally accelerated backwards up the hill.
Illusion or not, I recommend caution. |
