The old elms over on the north-central streets throw enough shade that the grass beneath them grows to a different rhythm than the rest of the yard. Wayne Russell Lawn Care mows those blocks and others across Colorado Springs, handling the edging, the string trimming and the clippings that would otherwise end up scattered on the walk. It is neighborhood work — the same yards week after week, the gate that sticks, the hose that lives in exactly one spot. There is quiet pride in pulling away from a lawn that plainly shows somebody who cared was there. Service covers Colorado Springs and the towns close by. Come August, when the afternoon heat presses down flat, the mowing starts early and is finished before it arrives.
