I’ve always been amused with the way places get certain names, ones which last for decades or longer.  Around the World is one such name.  The hills below BSC have an interesting name I won’t post here.  Then there’s Car Bodies in Mandan.  Even an official Morton County web page acknowledges the name, since it clearly isn’t going away.  It probably goes back to the fifties or so, who knows?

I’ve been told that ice would be cut and hauled out of the river in this place.  There was clearly a dock of some sort here, as you can see above.  There are some segments of steel cable protruding from the dirt of the river bank, as well.

I haven’t gone underwater here, so I don’t know if there are even any car bodies below the surface at Car Bodies.  It would make sense, though.  I’ll try to recall any other sites with cool names and post them here if I come up with anything.
