September in Dooly County still runs hot, but the light softens and the pecan groves outside Unadilla go quiet ahead of the shake. Medina's Landscaping keeps yards through that shoulder season — mowing, string trimming, edging, and cleanup that pulls the summer's litter out of the beds and off the turf. The sandy soil here drains fast, so a lawn can go from lush to thirsty in a week and timing the cut is half the craft. There is a plain satisfaction in leaving a place with the edges cut sharp against the walk and the drive swept clear. The route takes in Unadilla, Vienna, Pinehurst, Elko and Perry.
