Great pics, thanks for posting them.

Saw a lot of fields like that while traveling through Alabama, but never saw any of them being harvested. That is quite the operation.

Enjoyed the pics, lived in SC 15 years+ ago and they were just starting to grow again. Never saw it harvested. I enjoy seeing the corn,wheat,soy, milo, grasses, harvested here each year.. Great Pics!

Thats pretty good pics. We dont have many people harvest cotton around these parts anymore. What is the thing in the third picture some kind of baler/packer? Seen one around always wondered what it was.

Third picture is a cotton picker, you might have meant fourth picuture? Anyway fourth picutre is a module builder. It is what put ROCK-N-W out of a job Took the place of cotton trailers, presses the picked cotton into a large rectangular module to be picked up by another truck and trucked to the gin.
