The southern part of the town of Calais, VT, used to be called Sodom, because there was a bar there in the late nineteenth century, where the granite workers used to hang out all weekend and drink.

Later, the name was changed to Adamant. But the local pond is still called Sodom Pond.

They still have an annual Blackfly Festival every spring.

I can't seem to find a photo of the pond, but here's a print called "Joepyeweed at Sodom Pond," a flowering meadow on the shore, by a local photographer.
