By late afternoon in August the heat over Columbus stacks into a thunderhead somewhere past Phenix City, and the Bermuda has put on another inch since Tuesday. Aloha Lawn Care meets that growth with a steady mowing and trimming rhythm, keeping yards from Wynnton out to Macon Road tidy through the long Georgia summer. Edges get cut back in, clippings come off the drive, and the grass lies down again in neat rows. There is a kind of welcome in a lawn kept this way, the front walk clear and the strip by the mailbox squared. The cicadas do the rest of the talking.
