I am also the product of a place called Paint Creek. Doesn't have a zip code. It's too small to be called a town along the rolling plains of Texas. We grew dryland cotton and wheat, and when I wasn't farming or attending Paint Creek Rural School, I was generally over at Troop 48 working on my Eagle Scout award. Rick Perry
After all those days in the cotton fields, the dreams came true on a gold record on a piece of wood. It's in my den where I can look at it every day. I wear it out lookin' at it. Carl Perkins
Lesley Visser quote: "I went to the top of the Cotton Bowl by myself, sat down and..."
I went to the top of the Cotton Bowl by myself, sat down and cried. Lesley Visser
