      In Pennsylvania you have to go through Intercourse to get to Paradise. This is Amish country.

      You forgot going through Blue Ball first https://www.google.com/maps/place/Blue+Ball,+PA/@40.0742442,-76.0810162,12z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x89c66a84e3cc1793:0x643f08cf141e27c6!8m2!3d40.1183438!4d-76.0482087

        Pleasant Gap and Sugar Notch... I'm not saying the PA Dutch had some puritanical issues... but some of the town names you drive through...

            You drove the wrong way, that's where you end up.

                      My neighboring city is Gun Barrel City. Go across the bridge and you will find Seven Points. Turn left in Seven Points and you will find the city of Tool. If you turn right in Seven Points, you will find Cap City. We also have a town called Log Cabin.

                      Plus, when we lived in New Mexico, I heard about a town literally called T&C, short for Truth & Consequences, after a 50's game show. Out in West Texas, there is a small town called Eula.

                        Truth and Consequences, NM is very likely the third best known town in the state after Santa Fe and Albuquerque.
