Cotton picking time… fields as white as snow…
I know I have mentioned many times, there were no options in the 50s and 60s… pick it by hand and weigh it in the field at the end of the day… And, there were some good cotton pickers… not me… but I tried…
Peanuts turned up in the field, just right for picking, or will be soon… Still some corn around, but less every day…
Large equipment on our roadways, moving from field to field… PATIENCE, please…
NFL game tonight… Chicago Bears vs Washington Commanders (still have trouble with name change). Gametime 8:15 p.m. tonight…
High School fall sports as well… including Jayvee football tonight… John Clark covers it all on our Sports Page.
We have been covering news, sports, weather and more for over 16 1/2 years on BladenOnline. Have a hard time realizing… It all began on February 1, 2007… I remember very well…
