I don't know if cotton is in season, but if it is, can somebody bring me a couple of plants from a field next weekend? We talk about cotton and slavery and the effect it had on shaping our country. I need seed-filled cotton to show the kids how hard it was for the slaves to get the seeds out of the cotton.

Will do my best. They just picked it last weekend, but there is usually a few plants left!
Howie, don't forget to tell them about us non-slave chilluns' who had to go out in the fields of our plantation with our burlap sacks after school to pick cotton also.
