While you're in Michigan, you might also want to head over to Ann Arbor, the only city where "Gott" intersects "Hiscock" and(!) "Felch."

I lived on Gott for a few years, just down from Hiscock.....

While you are finding "Gott" and "Hiscock" in Ann Arbor, if you're not happy there, you can drive a couple miles out of town to "Hell" often the coldest place in Michigan during the winters.

On a work trip once, a lesbian colleague and I were driving from Grand Forks, ND to Fargo to catch a flight home, and we took a little detour to Climax. Climax, Minnesota that is.

Dare I as what the Felch High School mascot might be?

I new a Felch girl in college.

Felch is in the North Dickinson school district.

Their mascot is the Nordic.

I don't think you're going to find commercial airline service into Felch. IMT (Iron Mountain) which is served by Delta is closeby.

No we're flying LGA-DTW-GRB (Green Bay) then driving. Making a little weekend out of it. By the way, the only real attraction in Felch is the Felch Grade Trail...which starts on Old Dump Road.

Enjoy your trip to the beautiful U.P. of Michigan. If you want to continue your drive a couple of hours to the northwest, you could experience the quaint little town of Gay, Michigan.

Thanks for the tip! Anything to make this trip more ridiculous and unnecessary is appreciated.

Reminds me of All in the Family! The Bunkers' church was led by the Rev. Felcher, which Archie always mispronounced, "Fletcher" & replied "Whatever!" to Edith's correction.

Oh well, in downtown Columbus OH, Gay St. intersects High St.! Then in Pennsylvania's Amish country near Lancaster is a town called Intercourse!

Crystal Ave and Highland Dr intersect in SLC (of all places).

^ I never knew about that! Guess I need to get up to Inwood more often (or maybe not )

Here's a good reason to pop across the river. http://maps.google.com/maps?q=creame...ed=0CAoQ8gEwAA

Turning to the political, on the map linked to by DLNYC, 2 blocks north of pointer "A" is the intersection of Clinton & Bush streets!
