Morning comes to Rome off the water first — a low white fog lying along the Oostanaula until the sun climbs high enough to lift it. B&R Lawn Maintenance LLC works the yards that slope down toward the Riverwalk and the flat streets above them, mowing, trimming and edging until a lawn reads as one clean shape. There is a particular satisfaction in the last pass with the blower, when the walks go bare and the grass keeps its stripes. As the river birches and pin oaks let go, seasonal cleanups pull the drift out of beds and off the drive. Lawn care for Rome and the Floyd County roads around it, steady and finished all the way to the curb.
