The Little Thompson threads east through Berthoud under cottonwoods that mark the year better than any calendar — bare and silver in February, loud with green by June. Dave's Lawn Maintenance & Landscaping keeps pace with both ends of it: mowing, trimming and edging through the growing months, cleanups when the leaves finally let go, then plowing driveways and clearing walks once the cold settles into the valley. A lawn cut on a straight line and edged tight along the walk is a small, honest kind of beautiful. So is a driveway opened before the coffee's done. Same ground, same care, different tools.
