The Cricket Frog Trail runs the old rail bed out of Covington, and the town spreads either side of it in porches, driveways and small green rectangles waiting on a blade. Speedy Reedy Lawn Care keeps its routes moving — trailer down, mow, edge, trim, blow, gate latched — because a lawn doesn't need all day, it needs the right day. Weekly cuts carry the long Georgia growing season, when zoysia and bermuda put on inches in a single humid week of afternoon storms. Cleanups too: leaves off the beds, sticks off the turf after the wind has been through the pines. The measure of it is simple — pull up to a shaggy yard, pull away from a sharp one, and be down the road before the ice in the cup has gone.
