Laura Farms has been presented here by me in the past. She and her husband decided to fly from Nebraska to Australia to examine farming there. Laura will drive the Case Tractor there when in Nebraska she drives John Deere Equipment. This diversion might show you more about Australia than you imagine. She also comments on the owner's accent. Best to do is click on CC to understand his accent.
Did you know that water when draining spins the opposite of what it does in the USA? She comments on this too.

Grab something to drink and enjoy.

I was out fencing at Goondiwindi when I was having a Uni break; spent two seasons on tobacco but not actual cropping. Years later I went out there for another job and it was over 40oC for about three months straight. It was fantastic. REAL work. You'll notice Uppy has a full shirt; long sleeves etc. VERY sensible. The sheila and the bloke from the US should be wearing the same. Even now I get fifty or sixty skin sun spots removed every few months.

Brings back memories. Nostalgia on steroids.

They were good days; fair dinkum.

It is interesting to hear from people who went to Australia. Thanks

Yeah, she's a cute lil thang.
 
Ah yes, rural Australia, a generally tough life.
Rural Australia farming, even tougher.
Not for this 'city boy', ...too hot, too dusty, too far from beaches, too far from well-paying, air conditioned 'office' jobs.
'Boiling hot' in summer, 'freezing cold' in winter [not as cold and uncomfortable as NE USA, where 40 million people are currently experiencing blizzard conditions and are 'buried' under snow and ice, though.]

Those extreme cold weeks in the USA is due to manmade climate change per democrat party theory.

Indeed.
They all need to be wearing hats not caps, to protect their faces and ears from the sun.
Sunglasses also, to protect their eyes from UV rays....and glaucoma etc.

Hi Robert. I was born here. I grew up near the ocean (literally 200 feet away) and did a lot of manual work as a kid. I learned to drive in a Dodge truck. lol

Extreme cold? Where? In the liwer 48? Doesnt happen. Itd be neat for the entire lower 48 to have a week of well below zero so people get to experience it and learn its benefits.

The climate all over the USA is not a climate, it is a good many
climates. This points out the fraud forced on us by the terrorist's crowd.
