The I&M Canal towpath still runs straight through this stretch of the valley, a line drawn by hand a long time ago and never lost. Joliet Landscaping likes a line like that: mowing in even passes, edging drive and walk to a true seam, trimming the fence line so nothing shaggy gets left behind. Bed and mulch work frames the house, and cleanups carry off whatever winter and the trees deliver. A yard cut this way holds its shape all week, which is the difference between mowed and maintained. The town's name is on the truck, so the work has to stand up to it.
