First light on a Clear Lake summer morning burns the dew off the farm-edge lots toward Spaulding and Dawson in about an hour, and that hour is the good one. Ryders Lawn Care is out inside it with the deck spinning and the passes long, the cut coming off even because the grass is standing up and dry. Trimming follows, then edging, then a walk down the sidewalk with the blower. There is a plain pleasure in leaving a property behind you looking finished and then doing it again at the next one. By the time the heat sets in for real, half the route is already done.
