August over Lake Lanier stacks the sky white by two o'clock, and everyone working outdoors in Forsyth County learns to read that wall of cloud. SemperScapes works with the weather rather than against it, getting the mowing and edging done while the coves are still glassy and the air is only warm. Trimming around mailboxes, fencelines and bed edges; clippings blown off the drive before the first fat drops land. Then the rain comes through, the heat breaks, and by evening the grass holds the deep green only a Georgia summer hands out. Keeping a lawn on schedule here is largely a matter of arriving ahead of the storm, week after week.
