There is an hour after sunrise when the fields east of Phillips are still holding the night's cool and nothing on the road is moving yet. God's Way Lawncare likes to be working in it, deck spinning, dew burning off in stripes behind the machine. The job itself stays plain: mow, trim the fence lines, edge the walk, sweep the drive, leave a yard quieter than it was found. Growth on this ground does not wait for anyone, and a week between visits in June makes for an entirely different lawn. Care given steadily shows, and that is reason enough to be out early.
