Late August, and the light over Statesboro goes long and honey-colored around seven, catching every blade the mower laid down. Williams Lawn Service reads that hour well: mowing, string trimming, edging tight against sidewalk and curb, clippings blown back off the concrete, fence lines and beds cleared of whatever crept in during the heat. Down toward Luetta Moore Park the sidewalks run straight for blocks, and an edge cut clean along one is a line you can follow with your eye the whole way. Grass grows hard here all summer, which means the work is never truly finished — only done well again, and then again. Serving Statesboro along with Brooklet, Register and Portal.
