On the first genuinely warm Saturday in May, everything east of town toward Jamesport smells like cut grass and bay water at the same time. dimples landscaping keeps that going all the way to November — mowing on a steady week, string-trimming the fence lines, edging walks and drives, carting the clippings away. The yards out here sit close to the water, which means salt air, sandy ground, and grass that needs a bit of coaxing to stay thick. Beds get mulched in spring and cleared in fall, and hedges get taken back before they crowd the path to the door. Small properties, tended week after week, end up looking like someone lives there and loves it.
