Bainbridge Island has a Toe Jam Hill Road http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Toe+Ja...src=0&t=m&z=15. It is actually named after a Swede.
The town of Humptulips is now just a place name in the middle of nowhere http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Humptu...src=0&t=m&z=11.

Justamere Farm Road has a nice ring to it. That's in Kernersville, NC. I've been to Bat Cave and to Nags Head, but never to Lizard Lick or Flat Rock.

I use to think the French were very rude calling so many places around the Alps 'chute de pierres', whoever he was.
We've got a Seething Wells Lane near an Electric Parade, but apart from living in Strawberry Hill, my area of london is quite mundane.
Oh, yes, there is Feltham Young Offenders Institution up the road !

Oklahoma has a town called Bugtussle and I recall some place in Iowa or Minnesota as a Superman drive that runs into Lois Lane. I'm told in Milwaukee the standing joke is, What do they do with old streetcars in Milwaukee? Take them out to Fifth and Burnham.
