Postcard from Richmond, Australia

I received this from Australia a few years back from a nice lady. It's says on the back that it's a River Red Run tree and she writes it's quite old.
She writes that she visited Texas, my home state around 10 years ago in the Dallas area. She went to the Scarborough Fair, which is such a fun place to visit.
She then states that while in Texas she went through her first tornado. I've lived here almost all my life and almost barely had one come near me, so that's terrible odds for her. Sometimes, winds here will become so strong that they tear down fences and tree limbs, so maybe that's what she went through.
I really like this card. Have you ever been to Richmond, Australia?
Picture is mine of my postcard.

That is a great goal. I would love to see the animals of Australia.

I have never been to Australia. In 1978, I was offered to go there as long as I have money for transport and during my stay would be financed by my "friend".

That's a shame you couldn't go, but I'm sure it was a lot of money.

I have been to Richmond, Virginia. Maybe Judy Evans has been to Richmond, Australia.

@misunderstood_zombie The closest US city to Sidney is Los Angeles and it is 7,500 Miles. To the closest airport to my location is more than 14,000 miles.

I want to say it's 9,000 miles from here, but that doesn't sound right.
