By June the gnats find you around seven in the morning, which is exactly why Lee's lawncare is already halfway through the first yard by then. We start at first light in the Hephzibah and Bath neighborhoods, cutting while the air is still bearable, edging the walks, running the trimmer along every bed and post before the day turns heavy. Grass grows fast down here and it does not wait on anybody, so we come back on schedule and keep it from ever getting away. The reward is pulling out at mid-morning with three yards behind us, all of them squared up and quiet. Hephzibah, Bath, Blythe and the roads around them.
