In deep summer on the mountain the heat stacks up by ten o'clock and the only mercy is the shade of an old water oak. Garcia's Landscaping Service works straight through it, mowing, trimming, cutting fresh lines into the beds and setting mulch dark against the red ground. The cicadas ring the entire time. When fall arrives those same yards get their leaves hauled off and their shrubs shaped for the cooler months, so nothing gets away from the owner over winter. An Albertville summer asks a great deal of a yard; the pleasure is in handing one back looking composed.
