There is a week in Clear Lake every October when the grain elevator runs late, the fields go from gold to stubble, and the mower deck comes off the trailer for the last time. JBN Lawn Services works both halves of that turn: mowing, trimming and edging through the long green stretch, then plowing, shoveling and salting once the wind starts arriving with teeth in it. Same trucks, same yards, different tools on the back. Around the first hard freeze in this part of Illinois, having one number for the whole calendar counts for a lot. Come April the deck goes back on and the year begins again on the same driveways.
