Anyone here from Colorado or surrounding states (besides Cyclerboy, who lives a 5 minute walk from me)?

I suggest Manchester as a meeting place for Springers, on the principle that I'm lazy and won't attend if its anywhere else

heh, even if us "Yanks" live relatively near each other (same-state, or one state over), it can still be a very inconvenient distance to travel to meet up. And no, I'm nowhere near Colorado, btw.

Minnesota!

The only other fellow Spring Minnesotan that I know of is Veylon. Speaking of which, where is he?

And GZ lives in Iowa, which we Minnesotans think is entirely populated with hicks.

Farmland. A giant pipe is jointed in the center of each circle, and has big aircraft-style wheels on their ends so they can be rotated around easily while they water crops.

Australia, Victoria

yep, those are farms, they are ALLLLL OVER the midwest... its a pipe, yes, usually about a 12" sewerpipe with a serious water supply, and then there is a waterering system, about .... 1200 feet long connected to it, with wheels running about every 100 feet... they all have electric motors, and are computer driven so that they stay alligned, and it turns in a circle and waters in a circle automatically...

its a convient efficient irrigation system...

we got em all OVER here in Lubbock Texas...

Yay for TEXAS!! the only state you need a passport and a truck to feel normal in..
