Nice pic!! Use to be cotton fields everywhere here when I was a kid. Spent many days picking it after school to make 25 to 50 cent

Yep, sunset yesterday in the deer stand was amazing....

Great picture, bet that was beautiful to see for real!

Never seen a cotton field in person. If there was a visible sunset here tonight....... it would have been over a white field..... of snow!

I was a couple minutes late on that one. One of my favorite times of year, when the cotton is defoliated and the cotton bolls are in full splendor. I'll get some better pics this week before they strip !!

Which brings my least favorite season in a week or two. Ginning !! Never had alergy's growing up but last few seasons once the gin's get crankin I'm hurtin !

Most our cottons been picked. I tell ya what, you better get out of the way of one of those trucks hauling the cotton bales or modules I think they call em. They get paid by the load!

"When I was a little bitty baby my mama used to rock me in the cradle - in them old, cotton fields back home."

"20 cent cotton and 40 cent meat - how in the world can a poor man eat?"

Even tho my short term acts its age, these ancient musical memories flash up.
