Same day, same week, the mower comes up the drive — that is the arrangement Ol' Faithful Lawn Service keeps with Crawfordville. Lawns are cut on a rhythm rather than in an emergency, with trimming around every post and tree, edging along the walks, and the concrete blown clean at the end. In midsummer that means weekly; through the slower stretches it eases back with the grass. Hedges are shaped, beds are mulched, and autumn leaves are cleared before they smother the turf. In this hushed middle of the county, a yard that never gets away from you is its own kind of comfort.
