A town called Helen

I just found out there's a town in Georgia named Helen.  This first made me wonder how many other towns there are in our great country with women's names, but I haven't had a chance to pursue that trivialistic inquiry.

Helen turns out to be an interesting place;  it used to be a logging town, and when that commercially ended, it reinvented itself as a pseudo-Bavarian town smack inside one of the southernest states there is.  They even have an Oktoberfest.

The other interesting thing about Helen is that its sister city is Füssen, Bavaria. That's the little town that happens to be real close to the famous Neuschwanstein Castle.
