A Saturday in Baldwin begins with dew heavy enough to soak your boots by the second yard. John's Lawn Care is out in it anyway — mowing, edging, trimming, walks blown clean — because grass in Habersham County has never waited for a convenient week. The route runs Cornelia to Baldwin to Alto and back, the same yards on the same days, which is how a lawn stays even instead of getting rescued. Cleanups bracket the year at either end. In between there is the good repetition of keeping something looking cared for.
