October along the old rail line through Williamson turns the sweetgums to rust and the oaks to a slow copper, and the leaves come down faster than anybody plans for. Southside Landscaping meets that with rakes, blowers and a truck bed — leaf clearing, seasonal cleanup, and the regular mowing, edging and trimming that carries a lawn the rest of the year. Yards out here are wide and open, more pasture than plot, so the work gets measured in long straight passes rather than square feet. Getting those lines true on rolling ground is its own small art. When the last load is hauled and the drive is blown clean, a place looks ready for company on the porch.
