[AT] Question about travel experiences for some of you tractor guys--OT

[DBigdog]

We always found the Appalachian area of east Tennessee and North Carolina to 
be quite beautiful.  Stay out of the tourist trap areas though.  The Lake 
City and Norris areas of Tennessee have friendly folks and beautiful 
scenery.  A few old tractors too.

I know, this is way off topic but couldn't think of a better bunch of
men to ask.  If a guy and his wife want to experience a really
special country outside North America (while they can still get
around!)--where would be some good places based on your fortunate
experiences? ....where friendly folks speak a little English, don't
blow people up, and have good food.  Best time we've had so far is a
10-day trip through Arizona.  I was looking at some fantastic country
in Australia on Google Earth, but not sure I could survive 18 hours
over the ocean--or figure out where and how to go once there.  Went
to Hawaii several years ago which was a great experience--although a
little "civilized."   Holler if you have any ideas.    Maybe I could
call this a little "on topic" by looking for old tractors and engines
along the way.  In Hawaii I did take a close look and photos of an
ancient lawn mower powered by an old hit'n miss engine.   John
