tripointing enthusiasts among us
if thats not redundant
who may have 
been enjoying as i have the seemingly
tidy alphabeticity of our borderbase 
based google
earth peregrinations up to the present
from afghanistan to 
albania & then algeria & now as
far as andorra 
all in nice & 
more or less orderly sequence
may or may not have noticed the absence from 
its
rightful place of one of our 2 newest world class
tripoints
albania 
montenegro serbia
which we have only just learned to pronounce or 
rather
bastardize for the first time
almjrb
but now that we can say 
it somewhat we really should
include it somewhat too
dont you 
agree
so attached is a first try for it on google earth
this old 
topo doesnt indicate the serbia montenegro
border
http://sunsite. berkeley. edu:8085/ albania/50k/ 11-34-53- 1.jpg
but 
does show the ridge line it is believed to follow
junctioning with the old 
albania yugoslavia ridge line
border at or
near a guard tower shown at 
elevation 2354m
in grid box 13 x 24
or about halfway between intervisible 
alcs pillars 28
& 29
& that is the target point i have homed 
in on
i believe correctly
but better data wouldnt hurt this try a 
bit
for the time being i am relying on depictions no more
credible 
than this

TextLatitude= 42.5601104807169 &TextLongitude= 20.0949037277279 1&TextAltitude= 10&TextSelectedE ntity=270& SearchEnc= false&MapStyle= Comprehensive& MapSize=Medium& MapStyleSelected Index=0&searchTe xtMap=daravica& MapStylesList= Comprehensive& ZoomOnMapClickCh eck=on&ResultsLi stbox=42. 7528212039807% 3B19.23790910871 06%3B6%3B270% 3BMontenegro+ %28republic% 29%2C+Serbia+ and+Montenegro% 3BMedium% 3BComprehensive
but 
these same enthusiasts will surely be impressed by
the disorderly insertion 
of our next designated stop
good old cshrhu 
or rather bad new 
hrhurb
which is now actually the equally unspeakable croatia
hungary 
serbia
why we are headed there next i have no idea 
but we are 
if we continue with the present itinerary 
& i hesitate to push 
ahead before taking the
opportunity to sleep on it
as well as to ask for 
jespers & other opinions of what
really is wanted & what really would 
be best
but just to review our box score so far
all correct & 
complete to the best of our ability
afghanistan 6
albania 3
algeria 
6
andorra 2
so 
angola anyone
or must it indeed be cshrhu 
aka hrhurb
