Cotton Ready for Harvest


Cotton Ready for Harvest

On the way to Safford, AZ, I came across several fields of cotton ready to be picked. 81 degrees fahrenheit, no rain predicted so I guess they have time to get it done.

Amazing and (to me) exotic photograph.

Are there many fields like this in your region?
I usually associate this crop with States to the East of Arizona.
Very interesting photo, especially to those in other parts of the world. :o)

Lots of these in the state of Arizona because they can ususally get two crops a year using alternate fields so as to let one field rest and rejuvenate..

lol you guys are very funny...did you coordinate days? How do you decide whose pictures to view and when? I am still somewhat befuddled by the volume of pictures put on here daily..but then, I'm easily befuddled..I have too many things I like to do and very little time to do them...so, why am I spending time on GOY? I have 2 hours every morning before my Mom gets up and while it is too dark to go outside...that's when I visit GOY...

I'm usually on here after I've driven my son to the bus stop and before my daughter gets driven to school and I go to work!

In all honesty, GoY is keeping me sane while I watch over my elderly dog.
I can dip in and out of GoY, while keeping an eye on him. Lots of tasks I should be doing are getting neglected for a while, but I get to spend time with Bonsai the Welsh Terrier which is what matters most. :o)

Skippy ~
Gillian chooses a different member each day and looks at their photos. She often comments on pictures where I've already made a comment, so I soon get to realise which person Gillian has chosen for that day. My standing joke is that I have very few photos, so Terratoonie Day can be when Gillian is busy. :o)

PS . I did upload a butterfly pic. yesterday. !!! :o)

Sorry Skippy ~

That last message was for Gillian.
