morris and laura lamb lived on this road. they happened to know the governor at the time. his name was c. ben ross.olls and apple pie. this lady was well-known for this. she happened to know the governor. she noticed this lane 12 where she lived was in poor condition. she invited the governor to her home, served him one of her famous chicken dinners and took the opportunity to show him the miserable condition of this road and asked him, you know, is there something you could do to make this road better to get rid of these potholes in the governor told her if you can get this road grated, if you can get it graveled, i will make sure it gets oiled for you. she called the county commissioners, they agreed to do it. then she called the governor, reminded him of the commitment to her and the very next day the road was oiled and so, you know, that's how the road got oiled. then it happened that on that following halloween, some people vandalized this brand new road that she was so proud of and wrote on it lamb's chicken dinner avenue. and, of course, the kids said she came into the house mad as a wet hen
