Summer afternoons in Linden belong to the monsoon: thunderheads stacking white over the White Mountains by one o'clock, then rain, then the smell of wet cinder and pine. Grass loves it, which means the mowing hardly pauses in August. Mountain Curb Appeal LLC keeps the front yards square to the driveway, the trim line straight along the walk, and the clippings off the concrete before they stain it. There is real satisfaction in pulling away from a house that looks finished from the road. Between the storms, that is exactly the work getting done.
