a beautiful cotton field sight...love these shots. i never picked cotton, but i spent 6 weeks one summer when i was a teen
chopping the weeds in my dad's cotton fields...from 6 to noon every day for 6 weeks i chopped thoses weeds to earn enough
money to buy a pair of cowboy boots to wear when i rode my horse. got paid the grand total of 50 cents an hour...lol. they were
white boots and i loved them.
