Fun with google earth

I was on Google Earth laying out some fields for fertilizer and I found that apparently I didn't move very far last summer.

If you enter 44.2899n, 121.4178w in the Google Earth search it will take you to a tractor mowing hay in a field. Based on the image date I was cutting the hay on 8/12/2012. If you then go to the highway and go to street view and look to the south… you will see me (behind the Buehler sign) repairing a wheel line. The date on the street view picture is 05/2012.

So apparently, in 3 months, I only managed to move 100 feet or so. But I guess I did gain a tractor.

Haha, I once looked around for me. I found a leg going into a door, and I'm pretty sure it's my brother. I am basing this all off of the back of a shoe. Edit: I hope you don't see this as stalker-ish, but I found you

some nice country you live in there tomk. but what's the wheel line used for? can't say i've ever seen such things, except on bikes of course. ok i googled it, irrigation.

What do you use to irrigate fields over there Terry? Or is it like the rumors - no point in irrigating as it rains every day?

well lets just say if you look on google earth you won't see anywhere that's not green.

to be honest tomk, i don't really know, but would think because of the size difference in amount of land that needed to be watered occasionally (yes we do get lots of rain) here to over there, the usual water truck, drip lines, standard hose/sprinkler systems i've seen wouldn't realistically be feasible to use over there.



here's some links to uk irrigation sites.
