DonRocks Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 There's an Intercourse, Pennsylvania, and an Accident, Maryland. And I'm fond of Ninety Six, South Carolina - at Clemson, I was told it was 96 miles from Atlanta, but I don't think that's correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you kept that license to pass down to your grandchildren! *Metropolitan* Bumpass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmer john Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Separation betwixt the "p" and "a". Bumpass mailing address covers a huge area. Metro Bumpass is near the post office, sawmill and store. (according to me at least) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
