April mornings in the Des Plaines valley come with fog off the water that lingers in the low yards until the sun burns it away, and underneath it everything greens at once. L & S Landscaping meets Lemont in that hurry, mowing, trimming and keeping properties even through a spring that never hands anybody a slow week. The satisfaction is a lawn that looks unhurried anyway, cut at the right height, the edge along the walk holding its shape. Winter turns the picture over: the same properties plowed and shoveled, driveways down to pavement before the day asks anything of them. Two very different seasons, one steady standard.
