A June storm rolls through Lula in twenty minutes and leaves the whole town smelling like wet clay and cut grass, which is about the best smell there is. PeachState Lawn Services LLC works the day after — ground firm enough to cut, growth roaring, every yard between here and the Hall County line asking for attention at once. Mowing, edging, trimming, and blowing the walks clean is the routine, repeated until it becomes the way a yard simply looks. In this stretch of northeast Georgia the mowing season runs long and the grass never waits on anybody. Keeping up with it, week after week, is the whole craft.
