Cotton fields are few and far between here on the shore. It was a big crop for a couple years - we even had our own gin here - but now the gin sits collecting rust as farmers found they could make more off other crops. Actually, I am glad we don't grow too much cotton here... the poisons get into the ground water, and we have a single source aquafer. But all I wear is cotton, so I am glad someone grows it!

That should make a few t-shirts!
It's neat to see this - no cotton grows around here!
We don't see that in these parts... I miss it.
Reminds me of the song.
