Canton wakes with river fog in the low ground — the Etowah moving underneath it, the old mill brick going warm as the sun clears the foothills. Dixon Landscape and Irrigation starts once the dew burns back, mowing and edging the yards that climb away from the river, running the trimmer along walls and walkways where the ground gets steep. North Georgia hills mean no two lawns lie the same, so the passes are cut to fit the slope rather than the other way around. Walks and driveways get cleared before the truck moves on. From the ridge roads above town, a freshly mowed yard reads like a green room set into the trees.
