Wow 16 pages about the name of a bridge.

What lake?

You mean that mud puddle behind the magnificent Folsom Dam?

I think we're talking about the same one. It's the dam behind the Johnny Cash bridge.

Anyway, since the bridge is close to a dam, a lake, a point, a river with a name and a prison:

Why not combine it all into one bid acronym?

Folsom Lake Points Prison River Bridge.

For short it could be *oh, never mind: my dark, sarcastic, cynical side is showing.

I feel an interesting conversation coming.
Dave: Take Folsom Blvd to the dam road
Guest: What road?
Dave: the dam road
Guest: you don't need to curse
Dave: I wasn't it's the name
Guest: what's the name?
Dave: Oh never mind just go up to the Lake crossing
Guest: okay so I'll be crossing over the lake
Dave: well no but you take the crossing
Guest: what is it crossing over?
Dave: The river
Guest: so the lake crossing, crosses the river?
Dave: Exactly
Guest: No wonder you call it the Damn Rd.
