I suppose your friend is right. I always remember an American friend
of
mine who was driving round the UK touring and seeing the sights. He
send
me his hotel bookings, I send him a route and suggest stop offs.
What
Americans have trouble grasping is the sheer amount of country we
pack
into every mile. We don't have the roads where you can drive for
miles
and see nothing but the same field.
How would you like to plow Waggoner's big feild with a two bottom
plow. It
is 4,000 US acers. The first round took all day for a half dozen
tractors.

remember in 4000 acres we would fit two villages as well :-))
