A pair of climates described as 'subtropical' in their respective hemispheres, the differences being the examples of record cold in Waycross and the record heat in Walgett.
And, although I've not been to Waycross, I have been to Walgett, your typical unsophisticated 'bush town west of Woop Woop', worlds away culturally from the 'big smoke' urban cities of Brisbane/Sydney/Melbourne. perhaps a few cultural similarities between the two places.
I was watching a movie only yesterday that was filmed in Waycross, 'Savage Salvation'.... was ok I suppose.....
And as a young fella here in Darwin I saw a Charley Pride ( American blackfella C&W artist ) concert where he sang a song written by Bobby Bare called 'Miller's Cave'.
So he has some skank of a woman in Waycross, Georgia, but she was a bit of a COAT ( of a thing ) and played up on him with some mean ugly bastard called Big Dave the toughest SOB in Waycross. So he reckons, "fuck this..." and shot the pair of the pricks and carted 'em off to Miller's Cave to hide the bodies....
So now he's the most wanted man in the State of Georgia, but no bastard can find him, because the silly fucker has gone and got himself lost in Miller's Cave.....

Lyrics to 'Miller's Cave':
Way down in the state of Georgia
Amongst the swamps and the everglades
There's a big ol' hole in Tiger Mountain
God help the man who gets lost in Miller's Cave
I had me a girl in Waycross, Georgia
But she had unfaithful ways
She made me feel I was unwanted
Like the bats and the bears in Miller's Cave
I caught her out Sunday morning
With some guy they called Big Dave
The meanest man in Waycross, Georgia
I'd rather fight a mountain lion in Miller's Cave
So I said, "You're gonna pay, both you and Davy
'Cause I'm gonna see you in your grave"
They laughed at me and then I shot 'em
And then I dragged their cheatin' skin and bones
Into Miller's Cave
I couldn't stand the way she did me
Well I guess I showed her I was brave
The most wanted man in the state of Georgia
They're never gonna find me 'cause I'm lost in Miller's Cave
Actually, come to think of it, thats quite a drive hauling 2 bodies in ya trunk from Waycross to Tiger Mountain..... you'd be shittin' bricks about gettin' stopped by the Cops....
