Oglethorpe sits on the Flint, and on spring mornings the river hands the town a low mist that lifts off before the day really begins. Beckum Landscaping works the yards on this side of the water — mowing, edging along drives and walks, trimming around trunks and porch corners, gathering the cuttings so nothing gets tracked indoors. Macon County ground grows grass generously once it warms, and a lawn can go from tired to trim inside one visit. There is pride in a cut so even that the shaded half and the sunny half look like the same lawn. That is what keeps the route rolling, week to week.
