Bexar sounds more like one of Saturn's moons.

I love the town names Spring Green and Black Earth (both in Wisconsin), especially in combination. So idyllic. Hannah knows about a Nimrod, MN.

Nimrod is right next to Motley and Staples. It's my goal to visit all 3 sometime, in a tour of towns with funny names.
