Pumpjacks nod at the edges of the corn around Oblong, patient as anything, while the crop comes up green between them. Town & Country Lawncare & Landscaping keeps the yards in town and out on the county roads mowed, trimmed and edged all through the growing season, then moves to plowing drives and lots once Crawford County ices over. There's a week in late October when the light turns amber and every lawn takes its last cut of the year. After that it's deck off, blade on, and the same drives get opened in the dark instead. Oblong and the neighboring Crawford County towns make up the area.
