About Camden Kalteren

Spring arrives in Pleasant Valley all at once — the rain eases, the oaks leaf out, and every lawn from there over to Diamond Springs decides to grow six inches in a week. Camden Kalteren meets that with a mower and a calendar: regular cutting, edging, trimming back the overgrowth crowding walkways, and cleanups once the wet months leave their litter behind. The first cut of the year is honest joy, all smell and sudden order. Through summer the job becomes holding that order while the hills go tawny and the afternoons stretch. Come back in October and the yard still remembers where its edges are.
