This is a small spot in the road outside of Calvert City in Marshall County, bearing one of my favorite Kentucky town names. (Dogtown, Fairdealing, Scale, and Symsonia are also in the general vicinity)
While Googling Possum Trot, I came across tasithoughts' blog post featuring a Mormon missionary's diary reminiscences of proselytizing there in the early 1980s, a discussion about a local full service Harley shop called Possum Trot Choppers, and Brittany Donald's blog showing a photo of the Possum Trot Quick Mart (complete with cartoon possums scampering across the sign).
