"the old cotton fields back home...."
.................. sang byJohnny Cash, 1962
I said when the cotton fluffed out, I'd go make pictures so I did.
I think it's so beautiful
There are a few fields left......I bet these get harvested this weekend! They are READY. I think the farmers would've gotten them this week, but we had some rain most days.
Oh, they are so pretty! I know last year we saw some on our way up through Georgia, and hopefully there will still be some this time next week. Love these photos. Thank you for sharing it with us. We don't have cotton fields in this part of Florida. I think it must be too wet down here to grow it. Can you imagine back when that all had to be picked by hand? Wow! I'm glad they don't have to do that today. Take care my friend. It's always lovely to hear from you here!!
ReplyDeleteoooooh the fields are so pretty...they look like puffy white flowers. i have never seen cotton up close or in a big field!! you will miss seeing the cotton, i find i get used to sights like this and long for when they will return. have a great weekend. we have hunkered down, have all our storm food ready....and to me, that's all that matters. I LOVE A GOOD STORM!!!!! but we also have batteries and a generator, just in case!!
