Wouldn't ya think? I'm still looking for it. Although, I'm a little bit afraid of the effect an entire Oppossum Town would have on me!

Let's hope! I just realised I am allowing roads in my Place Names list so I'll happy take this one.

The image that came to mind when I first came across "the pike" was of a long, winding, country road littered with people and animals all playing dead (some better than others)all alongside *desperately trying to muffle snorts*.
But now I'm thinking it sounds like a bucolic stretch of dirt that you'd find in an A.A. Milne or Beatrix Potter book...

The image it conjures up in my mind is a turnpike in Pennsylvania, leading to Punxsutawney.

If there is an Opossumtown and you visited you'd probably think it was a ghost town.
