Old Route 66 still bends through Dwight, past the brick depot and the low storefronts, and a block later the prairie takes the town back. Krug's Lawn Care & Snow Removal LLC keeps the growing months in order here — mowing, trimming, edging, hauling off the clippings so a yard reads tidy all the way to the curb. Come November the wind arrives with nothing between it and the open ground, and those same yards ask for a different kind of attention. Blades go down before the coffee has cooled, drives open black and wide, walks get shoveled and salted while the fields beyond stay one unbroken sheet. It is plain work, and it is good to look back at.
