I am a transplanted Yankee living in the Mississippi Delta where cotton is one of the main crops grown. I was living across the road from a cotton field and watching them harvest was just amazing. They compress it into huge bales that could fit into the bed of a semi just about and cart it off to the gin to be processed. Bits of cotton fly all over the roads like snow at harvest time. When I first moved here I thought there must be a lot of drinkers in the area because of all the Gin factories I saw! Cotton Gins! :lol:
