Sue and Bruce Douglas in front of the "mural" in the lobby of the John Deere Factory in Waterloo, Iowa. They planned this trip for 13 temple missionaries. It was a 3 hr. trip to Waterloo for a one hours tram tour.
This is what they assemble at this plant--quite the production. The facility covers 48 acres. This building was clean and uncluttered. They use up their inventory within 3 days--each tractor takes about 10 hrs. to assemble--quite fascinating to see the process.
We began with a movie about how the company came to be and it's growth. They ship tractors all over the world.
Following the tour we enjoyed lunch at Olive Garden--a real treat considering our limited dining choices near Nauvoo.
