Evening along the river bends cool in West Fork, sycamores throwing long shadows over grass that grew all day. Reeds Lawn Service takes the last cuts then, when the mower and the water are about the only sounds left in the valley. Yards near the West Fork hold their moisture, so the timing of a mow matters nearly as much as the mow itself. Edges along the walk, a trimmer pass around the trunks, clippings blown off the drive, and every visit ends the same way, finished. The reward is a lawn that keeps its lines until the next week comes around.
