Down in the river bottom below the Etowah Indian Mounds the ground lies flat and dark, and grass takes to it in a hurry. Watters & Watters Lawn Services keeps yards on both sides of town on a plain rotation: mow, edge, trim, blow, move on — with fresh mulch when spring opens and leaves hauled off when it closes. Long summer evenings hand back an extra hour of daylight and a last lawn finished in gold light. Shrubs are trimmed to keep the walkways clear and the windows looking out at something tended. Small things, repeated on schedule, and a place starts to look looked-after.
