Out past Juliette the pines close in along Rum Creek, and the road toward Jarrell Plantation runs red and narrow between them. Serv All Lawn Care mows the open ground people have carved out of that pine country — front yards, side lots, the long strip between the drive and the ditch. Trimming around fence posts, mailboxes and the base of every trunk is slow work, and it is the part that makes a yard look tended rather than merely cut. By late afternoon, when the heat lets go and shadows stretch across Monroe County, the finished lawns look cool enough to walk barefoot. That is the whole aim: a place worth stepping out into after supper.
