My eye went to the awnings. Most today are permanent aluminum but I remember the dreaded rite of spring. It went something like bringing the canvas down from the attic. If dried it didn't mildew. If you put it up wet you then had to scrub it.

Then pop would (right around Fathers Day??) .. begin assembling the pipes.

Trying to "color coordinate" with the neighbor to keep the duplex look pretty uniform.

And the best part was learning a few new words. Not falling off the roof or a ladder was always a fun and a true challenge.
