October in Stonegate arrives on a hard blue afternoon, ash trees going yellow all at once and the first real cold sitting just behind the Divide. Good Hands Home Services LLC works the yards of people who cannot always be there for them — mowing while the grass is still growing, trimming and edging, and the fall cleanup that gets a property ready for a Colorado winter. Half of caring for a home is showing up the week it needs you rather than the week it suits you. The crew handles the ordinary things thoroughly, then leaves the place quieter than they found it. Coming home to a yard already put to bed is a small and genuine relief.
