Down along the old canal towpath the water goes still and green in July, and up in Crest Hill the lawns are doing their level best to outgrow the mower. Lawnworks Of Joliet, Inc. keeps that pace — weekly mowing, trimming and edging, spring and fall cleanups hauled away — through a Will County summer that can swing from soaking to baking inside a week. Winter flips the work to plowing and salting: drives cleared, walks opened, ice treated before the morning shift heads for the interstate. Watching one property go from first green through bare ground and back again is a satisfaction that never wears thin. Crest Hill, Joliet, Lockport and Plainfield make up the regular map.
