Down by the Five Mile River the October wind takes the leaves in about a week, and every lawn in the valley needs hands on it at once. J.P. Callahan Landscaping is in that rush — leaf removal and fall cleanup, and before it the long run of mowing, trimming and edging from the first warm week onward. Then the ground hardens, the trucks change over, and it becomes plowing, walkway clearing and ice control on the drives above the river. A yard raked bare in November is a good sight; so is a driveway with clean square corners in January. A town looks after itself best when somebody is out early.
