It looks like we're having a blizzard here today. The cottonwoods are throwing cotton everywhere. The ground is white! The roses are all fuzzy. Usually I'm complaining about the wind, but today there isn't enough wind to carry off the fluffs, so it just kind of hangs in the air. Too bad I'm not young enough to cut down all the cottonwoods and plant desirable trees in their place. Actually I have planted good trees, but I'll never see them grow as tall as the cottonwoods.
