There is no shelter between Morton and the fields, so a winter night out here can lift snow off open ground and set it down anywhere it likes. LT Excavating works those nights: plowing drives and commercial lots, pushing the banks back so the space is still usable when the next storm comes, opening entrances and laying ice control before first shift. Heavy machines are patient work — slow passes, square corners, piles placed where they will not blind a driver backing out. By the time the sky goes gray over Tazewell County, the pavement is dark and open and nobody has to think about it. Snow is the whole of what this outfit does around Morton, and it does it while the town is still asleep.
