Footnotes ...
| <1> | Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' distance. A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line from Point A (ie- Lloyds) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Lloyds. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 45.0197, Longitude: -64.6456 |
