Taylor Ridge holds the sunrise back over Summerville a while, so the valley wakes in a soft blue light before the sun clears the rim and hits the fields all at once. Escamilla Lawn Service is usually rolling by then, mowing, edging and trimming yards up and down the Chattooga County valley. Northwest Georgia's cool nights and warm days grow grass thick, and keeping it cut on schedule is what separates a kept yard from a chore that snowballs. Every stop finishes the same honest way: the edges defined, the trimmer work done around posts and foundations, the walks blown clear. When the ridge shadow comes back across the valley in the evening, the day's work is standing behind them.
