Greetings from the land of cotton

Howdy.

Back where old times aren't forgotten!

I too am from the land of the boll weevil that yankees think is medieval. What slice of southern heaven are you located in?

Welcome to the pool, (Try to avoid the yellow areas)!

Thanks for the welcoming words.

I’m in Western TN almost to the MS border. I drive past many cotton fields on my way to work each day.

I love the smell of Trichlorophenoxyacetic acid in the morning!

It's amazing when hit the plants with that stuff and in a few days...no leaves!

If you drive by every day you know the score.

It’s been so wet there are still fields with cotton waiting to be harvested.

I owned (2) manufacturing operations in Fitzgerald GA. for 20 years. Sailed past many a cotton field on my bike every day. I miss that and the people. Been back home in Tampa for past 8 years to take care of family homestead and business. Florida is now full of transplanted yankees with a complaint about everything.

Enjoy the country life!
