&gt; &gt;Sorry, but I cannot find the fragment that you are refering to on <br/>
these<br/>
&gt; &gt;maps. I also cannot find &quot;Bear Creek&quot;<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; Whoops. Try<br/>

&gt; The state boundary follows the Tennessee river, then heads W of S <br/>
formthe <br/>
&gt; mouth of Bear Creek. Whereas in days of yore the creek was just <br/>
that, this <br/>
&gt; was no problem. Now with the damming of the Tennessee river, the <br/>
creek <br/>
&gt; mounth has also been flooded, making a large estuary, and leavbing <br/>
an <br/>
&gt; isolated patch of Alabama on the west bank, a pene enclave. This <br/>
phenomenon <br/>
&gt; has happened at various other US dams too. It is nice to see the <br/>
maps show <br/>
&gt; the original Bear creek course, so one can better understand the <br/>
boundary.<br/>
