Summer opens over Boone County with fog lying low in the Kishwaukee bottoms, and it lifts about the time the first mower starts. Always Great Landscaping keeps the lawns of Boone cut clean — farmyard squares, village front yards, the long green aprons that run out to the blacktop. Mowing, edging, string trimming and beds kept honest: the work is plain, and the payoff is a yard that reads as one unbroken sheet of green from the road. Between the corn and the county line there is no shade to hide a sloppy line, so the lines are straight. By evening the smell of cut grass hangs in the still air, and another place looks cared for.
