A freight horn carries a long way across the Oothcalooga Valley, and most mornings it reaches Andonny's Handyman and Landscaping Services well before the dew has burned off the grass. The work runs through the yards along the old rail line and the streets that fan out from the Adairsville depot — mowing, edging, trimming close along fences and walkways, then clearing every last clipping off the concrete. Grass moves fast here between May storms, and there is a genuine satisfaction in bringing it back to order: the pass laid straight, the border cut sharp where turf gives way to brick. By the time the afternoon train comes back through town, the lawns on either side of it look tended and calm. That is the whole ambition — a yard that looks like someone cared about it, on an ordinary Tuesday in Bartow County.
