Good call on Mammoth Cave.

There's a waterfall near here that has a moonbow (a rainbow that shows up in moonlight).

There's also a massive underground lake near where I used to live in Tennessee, called the Lost Sea.

By the way, Stone Mountain's not really a mountain--it's just a big granite rock (I grew up down there).

I just discovered an establishment not too far from here; I have no idea what it is, only what it's called. The name on the building is "Cabbages and Kings."

As I said, no clue what it is, but the possibilities are endless. Somehow, I see it as a halfling establishment in a D&D setting...

You left out the Junkman's Daughter, an eclectic store in any setting.

Closer to home, we have Five Forks Trickum Road (a good name for a winding, difficult to follow trail?) and of course the matter-of-factly-named Stone Mountain.

I agree with Ankh-Morpork, I've always wanted to end a CoC with the party racing toward Stone Mt down the highway and see it across a flat stretch all lit up at night with Azathoth writhing down from the clouds above it

Can't believe I left out the Junkman's, though it's actually the Junkman's Daughter's Brother ...

Oh, and add to the list the double-barreled cannon ...

The only appropriate names from my area are pubs (kind of telling):

The Rusty Gull
The Raven
The Black Bear
The Rose and Thorn (now gone)
The Queen's Cross

There is a place in the Olympic National Forest called the 'Hall of Mosses'. Sounds like a great place for druids to meet up in. Here is a picture of it.

There is also an old lava tube called the 'Ape Caves'. Just a big 'ol undergound tunnel really.

Can't believe I left out the Junkman's, though it's actually the Junkman's Daughter's Brother ...

Forgot that the Junkman's Daughter is in Atlanta, her Brother is in Athens.

Rune, I love your story hours.

We should meet up and party sometime, before I move to San Diego in May.

I always thought "the Netherlands" to have a very Fantasy name
