Fresh-cut grass mixed with a little gasoline

Fresh-cut grass mixed with a little gasoline. Instantly takes me back to summer Saturdays at my grandparents’ house. Grandpa would be mowing, somebody had a radio playing in the garage, and there was usually a cooler sitting by the back steps. I can smell that combination now and for about five seconds I’m right back there.
