THANKS Guys for the Posts, they've brought back a lot of memories. Back in the mid-80's the wife & I were driving past the LAST crop of Cotton grown in the Pahrump Valley. The wife had never seen Cotton growing before, so I stopped & walked into the field where the crew were hand picking the Cotton Bolls (small, irregularly shaped field, too small for the large mechanized Cotton Pickers) and I picked a branch with 5 Cotton Bolls on it and took it back to the wife. Later she wrapped it in waxed paper and pressed it in a book. Don't know whatever became of it. Cotton Gin has been gone for nearly 30 years now, but I still have the LAST BUNDLE of sequentially numbered Bale Tags for the Nevada Ginning Company of Pahrump, Nevada. We had the ONLY Cotton Gin in the entire State. (Really do need to take those Bale Tags and donate them to our local Museum.)
