Cleaning a home in Peachtree Corners

Peachtree Corners runs along the Chattahoochee on the west edge of Gwinnett, where the river passes park land and walking trails on the way south. The water comes out cold from the dam upstream, so on summer mornings fog sits in the bottoms until the sun burns it off. Neighborhoods back up to the river on wooded lots that fall away toward it, with decks built out over the slope.

River silt is fine and pale, and it rides home in the tread of trail shoes and on a dog. Swept or vacuumed first it lifts; mopped straight off it smears across entry tile. All summer the same door takes wet towels, life jackets and river shoes, so the entry and laundry room earn the time. Down on the lower level, glass and tile get wiped dry, not left to air.
