A January clipper comes down on Belvidere with wind behind it, and the trouble is never only what falls — it is what the open fields hand back over the road, drifting a cleared driveway shut in twenty minutes. Nico's Landscaping runs plow and shovel through those nights, salting the walks so the first steps of the morning are safe ones. Come May the same trucks trade the blade for the mower, and the work turns to cutting, trimming, edging and cleanups across the same streets. Two seasons, two tools, one town. There is a real pleasure in handing someone back a driveway at dawn, and another kind entirely in handing back a lawn on a Saturday.
