Discovering Montgomery

We've been living in Montgomery for a couple of months now, and it is finally time to introduce you to the cotton fields. They were everywhere during the summer, now we are nearing harvest, and I had to hurry to get a closer look.


Cotton as far as the eye could see. What surprised me most was the fact that it actually felt already like a cotton ball. I don't know what I was expecting, but except for the seed inside, it seemed these things were ready for packaging. 


I think I went a bit overboard with the cotton picking, but I managed to find a use for most of my bounty:
Our very own cotton ball tree!


We spent Columbus Day weekend in town, enjoying the area and exploring our neighborhood. There is an independent bookstore in walking distance, although it is way more fun to ride our bikes there!


You can't have fall season without pumpkins! I limited myself to only a couple during this time to the Farmer's Market, but fear not: I'll be bahck! (In a non-threatening way.)




Thank you for exploring with me today!
Until next time,
Nadine
