Bethel is a handful of streets that end at Broad Creek, and the loblollies along that water grow tall and fast and lean whichever way the wind has been arguing. John's Tree Service LLC works the village and the farm lanes around it, trimming pines back off tin roofs and pruning the old shade trees out front so a crown opens up instead of thickening. Removals here often mean threading a trunk down between a house and a fence line with a foot to spare on either side. After a squall comes up the Nanticoke and drops a top across the road, storm damage cleanup is the first call of the morning and usually the longest day of the week. What you get for it is small and specific: the creek breeze moving through a yard again, and sun on grass that had forgotten it.
