November drops two things on a Grant County yard at once, sweetgum leaves and a steady rain of pine straw, and left alone they will smother a lawn brown before Christmas. K&N lawn care takes that on with rake and blower, pulling the straw off the turf, out of the beds and down off the roofline edge of the yard. Underneath it all the grass is still there, and bringing it back into daylight is the whole reward. The mower keeps running while the growth lasts, the borders stay cut, and the drive gets swept back to clean concrete. It is unglamorous, physical, satisfying work, and a house looks entirely different by dusk.
