There are just some smells that mark the seasons, don’t you think? The earthy aroma of crunchy fallen leaves in the autumn. The clear, crisp scent of snow and hot chocolate in the winter, and the sweet fragrance of lilacs in the spring. For me, one of the smells that means summer is fresh mown hay. Just yesterday, I drove past a field near my home with huge rolls of hay waiting in the field.
