Larry, it gets worse -- that same sunny Olympic Peninsula afternoon, we were on a bike ride and passed through a residential area on our way to a bike trail. It was a Tuesday. Everyone in the neighborhood -- I mean EVERYONE -- was out mowing the lawn. Old people, young people, power mowers, riding mowers, you name it -- all out mowing at the very same time, around 3 in the afternoon.
It looked like a Lawn Cult: the Tuesday Afternoon Mowing Ritual.
I finally got the courage to ask someone to explain the lawn frenzy. He looked at me like I was crazy and said, "Are you kidding?? This is the first time the grass has dried out in two weeks. It's now or never!"
How was I supposed to know? I'm from California -- we got 5 inches of rain this whole YEAR.
