Footnotes ...
| <1> | An 'estimated' location is one where we have been given GPS coordinates, but are unable to verify the accuracy of those coordinates.  That said, we have some confidence that we have placed the marker near the actual location.  A typical reason for being unable to verify a location is that it might be on private property or maybe historic and gone without an obvious trace. | 
| <2> | The location has been supplied by the Geographic Names Information System - which is maintained by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).  While these values should be definitive, we found that accuracy can vary and you should double-check the location if accuracy is required. | 
| <3> | While we're fans and frequent users of TripAdvisor, you should know that we're also members of the TripAdvisor affiliate program. | 
| <4> | If you're interested in how the shape of Alabama's counties, including Clarke, have changed over time, we recommend  the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries. | 
| <5> | When we are planning a trip (for example, to West Bend), we usually look for the obvious: the choice of airlines that fly into the airport, the number of flights, the connections we have to make, which car rentals are available, etc.  We also look for sights and attractions that we might find between any given airport and our destination  - we do love exploring.  We're willing to fly into a more distant airport if we can get the services and amenities that we like.  Even though our choice of airport might be inconvenient to others, it usually gives us a better trip. |
