It's Snowing again! Summer Snow That Is!

Now before you think I've lost my mind B) this is what I refer to as our summer snow. Every year at the beginning of summer the Cottonwood or Poplar Trees (known as both here) bloom and go into seed. If you have never experienced this, you're lucky, as it makes an awful mess all over the place. These trees have long white fuzzy blooms that disect into little fuzzies and blow all over the place. They are particularly annoying if you're trying to do things outside like stain a deck, paint your house or even just trying to be outside as they blow into your face, especially eyes, nose and mouth :yeahrite: . This will go on for a couple of weeks but on a breezy day, it really does look like it's snowing! :P
