Early September is when we begin to see the white of the cotton in our part of SC. For a month, the green in the field will continue to fade until it looks like a blanket of white and you want to keep it that way forever.

You may drive past again and again just for the view.

Then the brown starts peeking through and you must harvest. As more brown speckles the field, it becomes easier to let it go and harvest.

The view is just not as delicious.

So we harvest.

Then harvest again.

And probably wearily harvest a third time.

Plow.

Rest.
