By the middle of July grass in Taliaferro County grows like it has somewhere to be, and a week is plenty to lose a lawn. Bowden Grass Mowing stays out in front of it, running mowers across Crawfordville yards and the wide edges out along the old rail line, then trimming close around mailboxes, fence posts and the feet of pecan trees. Edging opens the walk back to a clean seam and the blower carries the rest onto the grass. Lots that have gotten away are knocked down and brought back onto a schedule. There is a particular satisfaction in a hot afternoon that ends with everything short, straight and quiet.
