Tomorrow, we leave for Cooter, Missouri. Yes, that is the name of the town. If you’re wondering where it is:
It’s about 4 hours south of here, just before you get into Arkansas (and borders Tennessee as well). It’s country.
Yes, the population is just 451.
My grams lives here. My dad grew up here. We’re taking the dogs down for Thanksgiving at her home. I plan on using this time to take lots of photos of life and things around town. Other than the way my grams can drive me completely nuts, I do enjoy the fact that it’s a more simple way of life there. I just wonder if I’ll even have cell service. Might be good for me.
I’m sad though that I’ll miss the cotton in full bloom. When we were there last 4th of July, I shot it as it was starting to grow:
The cotton gin is just up the road from my grams’ house. I wonder if there will be remnants of it lying around I can use my macro lens on. Fingers crossed.
Anyway, we leave tomorrow morning and come back on Saturday. I hope everyone has an amazing Thanksgiving week!
