Pickin Cotton

Matthew and I were invited by family friend and farmer David Mullens to come and check out the operation as they picked cotton. Well, we drove out to his field and he pulled up at the end of a row in a giant green John Deere four row cotton picker. David gave us a good look at the spindles that pick the cotton and explained how it is then removed and sucked into the back. Well, then I passed Matthew up to David and we all got in the air-conditioned driver cab and off we went. I explained to Matthew that other kid's parents have to buy videos of this stuff for their kids to watch. I know that I will have to tell him about this one day. We picked one row of cotton, dumped the contents into a module builder and came back down another row. Matthew did cry a little at first, because the whole experience is kind of overwhelming, but settled down after a couple of minutes and played with David's shirt sleeve. David said the he only fussed because he wanted to drive. Anyway, this was a pretty thrilling experience for Matthew and me. Of course, Dad forgot the camera, but we will go and take a picture for everyone another day.
