Cleaning a home in Blue Diamond

Blue Diamond is a small village at the foot of the Spring Mountains, off the highway toward Red Rock, and it sits high enough to run cooler than the valley floor. The houses are older and low, most of them single story, with real shade trees around them and dirt shoulders instead of curbs on some streets. Burros walk through the yards. The nearest full grocery run is a drive down the highway, so dinner gets cooked at home.

Here the kitchen takes the hours, not the bathroom. The stove top, the hood filter and the cabinet doors around the range hold a film that one pass will not lift. The baths in these older houses are small and quick by comparison. Add the dust off the dirt shoulders, which lands on top of the cabinets and the fridge and never blows away.
