September in Vermilion County smells like harvest — combine dust hanging gold over the fields, a fine grit settling on everything in town. Montgomery Services LLC keeps its Danville route moving through all of it, mowing block by block as the growth slows and the leaves begin letting go. Late-season cuts and cleanups are what set a yard up to look decent all winter. Trim lines held, walks cleared, nothing left in the gutter — small courtesies, repeated. A neighborhood where somebody is doing that shows it from the corner.
