The smells of lawnmowers and freshly-mown grass trigger memories as surely as hearing a song from the past. Lovely post.

Thank you! It’s funny how a scent can take you back. Sounds like a future post for you. Is there scientific research about scents and memory? I visited Hawaii for a week as a child and there are still certain smells that take me back there. Kind of odd considering it was such a short visit. Our minds are interesting things.

This post is a treasure! You and your family are a hardy bunch, raking 5 acres of grass by hand 😊 I would love more about your country place!

Thank you so much, Susan! I will admit that I fully dread every mowing of the grass now. 😋 But the results are worth it and it’s a great way to teach the kids the value of hard work. I will try to add more about our little slice of the country. With the warm weather finally approaching we’ll be able to get out and enjoy it more!
