wow these are all extremely cool & curious
especially fun zooming in & out on them

i think a few of the boston area counties may be something of a match for
the denver area
but am not sure of the particulars
which i have a hunch you may know & have only omitted by chance

no new ones to add here either
but i am glad to see the list growing so nicely

could more web page roundup tries along the lines of
http://vwww.abo.fi/users/rpalmber/enclaves.htm be far behind

i sure hope so
& excuse my doting on it
it is so purdy

btw i may have caught wind of a malawi tanzania enclave situation in or
around lake nyasa
& another european one called vereanhof or something like that
but cant verify either

have you perhaps ever heard anything about these possibilities
