not a change in my estimated tripoint position
but
since i just figured out how to measure horizontal distances at google earth
by using the last item under the tools pulldown menu at the top
aha & ahhh
i can & must correct my earlier distance estimate from the google overlay tripoint to the
actual tripoint at the geocoords i gave below

for i see now it is not a few km wsw as stated but only about 700 meters
oops
