Down along the Kishwaukee the ground stays a shade greener than the rest of town, cottonwoods leaning over the water and the bottoms holding damp into June. Durango Landscaping works the yards on both sides of the river — mowing, trimming, edging, seasonal cleanup — and knows which lawns want a lighter pass after a wet week. River-bottom turf punishes a dull blade and rewards patience. On a June morning with mist still lying on the water, the work is close to pleasant. One clean edge along a walk, cut once and cut right, is worth the drive out.
