South of town the Colorado River runs through cottonwood bottoms at Corn Lake, where herons stand in the shallows and the air is ten degrees kinder than the highway. That green pocket is the reminder of what water does in this valley. Solomon's Landscaping LLC carries a little of it into the neighborhoods with weekly mowing, careful trimming, clean lines at the walk and cuttings hauled off instead of left to mat. A well-kept Grand Valley lawn is its own small river bottom, cool underfoot on a hot day. Making that happen, yard after yard in Clifton, is steady and satisfying work.
