Morrisonville keeps its few square blocks tucked into the Christian County corn, close enough to hear a combine working on a still October evening. Brian Schmedeke Mowing takes those lots through the growing season — mowing, trimming around posts and mailboxes, blowing the walks clear, knocking overgrown ground back where it has gotten away. When the fields go bare and the wind starts carrying snow across the road, the mower goes in and the plow comes out for drives, lanes and walkways. Winter around here is honest about itself: clear it early, salt the slick spot, come back if it keeps up. Either season, the measure is a place that's ready to be used.
