At sixty-four hundred feet the ponderosas come down in a slow amber rain, and by October a Show Low lawn is wearing more pine than grass. AAA Tree Technology LLC mows, trims and rakes those yards clear, so the turf goes into the cold with room to breathe. Mornings arrive with frost on the truck and the smell of warm pine by ten, and the last cut of the year is a satisfying thing to finish. Down at Show Low Lake the water holds the sky and the pines stand black against it — the same trees that fill every yard in town. Show Low, Lakeside and Pinetop are all on the round.
