I have been thinking a lot about the beautiful old cottonwoods in the ditch near my home. They won't be around much longer. This cottonwood likely had its beginning 60 years ago, the last time the Rio Grande Valley flooded. Not likely to be happening again anytime soon. Not that I want my home to be flooded, but when I'm seeing all that cottonwood fluff flying these days, I'm feeling a little sad that all this reproductive effort will come to nothing.
