I guess I could do that. But I think controllers like airports as
reference
points better than otehr landmarks.


Controllers aren't that fussy. Any prominent landmark or fix is as good
as any other.
FWIW, I don't give any destination or route in the request when
VFR and have very seldom been asked for it. One time was midway
cross-country when I had been handed over to one sector, then made a turn
over an intersection and headed for another.
