When the heat lets go around seven, the light over Pleasant Ridge turns the color of a ripe rind and the mowing gets good again. Summer evenings here are short on shade and long on light, and Orange Crate Lawn Care uses both — cutting, trimming and edging while long shadows reach across the yard and swallows work the field behind it. Grass cut in the cool stands up better by morning, and the line along the drive keeps its shape instead of fraying. Nothing gets left on the walk; the blower goes over it before the truck moves. There is not much in this trade as plainly good as heading back to the trailer while a finished lawn goes blue behind you in the dusk.
