    In the province of Quebec we have a town called Trois-Pistoles, meaning Three Pistols in French.

    Just went through Mexican Hat, Utah. It features a rock formation that does look like an upside-down sombrero.

    I live near Monkey's Eybrow, KY. Not too far from Possum Trot, KY. I always get a kick out of Frozen Head State park in TN as well.



    I used to go over to Ballard Co a lot on service calls, I would detour just to drive thru Monkey's Eyebrow just for fun. I am a ham radio op and I liked to make contacts from strange named locations such as Monkey's Eyebrow, Devils Lake ND, Bucksnort, etc.

    Lovelock, Nevada seems a little suggestive to some folks. There are a couple of cross road villages (near each other) in northern CA called Igo & Nogo.

    My favorite is also Toadsuck, AR.



    Actually ... it's Igo and Ono. We used to live nearby ... :). Also nearby are Peanut and Hayfork.
