There is a particular satisfaction in the edge — the clean line where turf stops and concrete starts, held straight down the whole length of a Mahomet sidewalk. Elite Edge Lawn Services builds its days around that line and the mowing that frames it. Late in the afternoon the light comes in low across the village blocks, and low light is honest: it finds every ragged margin and every missed pass. So the trimmer goes twice around the mailbox post and the lamp post, and the clippings come off the concrete instead of graying there for a week. A prairie town is wide open and everything shows, which is a good reason to finish properly.
