Willow, What a wonderful photo!! I don't think I've ever seen a Cottonwood Tree in person. Don't believe they are native here. My father's family farm on the praries of southwestern Ks. There are probably not more than 50 trees in a hundred square miles there. When they visit here, they feel like they've entered another world.

There is a cypress swamp about 35 miles from here just across the Delaware state line. I bet that would be a great place to look for driftwood. There is often quite a bit in our creeks and rivers. I have been wanting to get some ever since I saw this arrangement at the Burpee/Fordhook Farm.

Pirl, Thanks for that link. I will have to study it.
