Gougar Road driveways run long, and a freezing rain out there can glaze one end to end in a couple of hours. McCluskey Services covers New Lenox properties on both calendars — plowing and clearing those drives and walks, salting the glaze before anyone has to walk across it. In the warm months the same ground gets mowed, trimmed and edged, with cleanups when the season turns over. Rural lots take more passes and more time, and that is simply what they take. Arriving before the ice sets is the whole difference between an inconvenience and a fall.
