Rural Road Names.

i have a friend who lives on smoke rock rd, that sign has been stolen so many times they won't put it back up. I use to live on South Fulwar Skipwith Road. took up the whole envelope to write the address. and this is how you say exit in german, Ausfahrt i get a big laugh every time i go down a german highway.

Katie's Crotch Road

You just got to wonder about the origins of that one.

Ours is.....(play weird music).....Rt. 666

666 is Bent Nail Rd. in our neck of the woods...

Bucktooth Run.

 

[MossRoad]

One of our favorites we see on vacation in Tennessee is Stinking Creek Rd.

 

[MF1652]

Dick Dame Lane, Coxeseter Square(you can imagine how that one gets pronounced), Witchtrott Road.

In southeastern Oregon we have "Dead Indian Memorial Highway", which I think is a candidate for most politically incorrect road name.

It is a major road, not just a back lane.

On a drive I regularly make for work I see Gravel Road (not much imagination there) and Chicken Shack Road.

I can't remember where it is now, but somewhere around here there is a sign for Mosquito Creek Road with a real estate sign on the end of the road advertising acreage for sale. I always laugh and think they should have got the county to change it to Oak Brook Lane or something before they tried to sell that property.

Hogfat Hill Road
Backnippin Road
Dyke Mtn Road (that sign gets stolen weekly)
Folley Road


All of these are within a mile or so from me. The Dyke Mtn Rd sign is the most photographed sign around. It was originally spelled Dike, but 100 years ago for some reason the name was respelled? Costs the town dearly. lol
