October is when the plains show their hand — the first hard freeze arrives overnight, the cottonwoods let go all at once, and every lawn in Sherrelwood is suddenly wearing somebody else's leaves. JR Galindo Landscaping & Construction clears them out, rakes the ground back to itself, takes the turf down one last time and leaves the yard flat and settled for winter. Through the green months the routine is steadier: mow, trim, edge, keep the boundary between grass and concrete honest. This is a plain, practical corner of Adams County, and the work suits it exactly. There's a real pleasure in standing at the curb afterward and seeing a yard that's finished.
