Torrington sits in a bowl, the Naugatuck threading the low ground while the hills on either side hold the light a little longer. ABD Landscaping works that valley floor and the slopes above it, mowing through the long green middle of the year and plowing once the ridges go white. There is a particular satisfaction in a driveway opened before the first commuter is awake — banks squared, salt down, the whole morning handed back to somebody. In summer the same care shows up as a clean edge where grass meets walk and cut lines that run true to the curb. Lawn care and snow removal are two halves of one habit here: show up, read the ground, leave it better than the weather left it.
