Yellowstone Landscape

About Yellowstone Landscape

By two in the morning the wind has had the whole open country between Plainfield and Oswego to build in, and it lays snow across driveways in long fins that a plow has to break twice. Yellowstone Landscape is out in it — clearing lots and drives, cutting drifts back to pavement, shoveling walks and steps down to something a boot can trust, then salting and de-icing before the melt gets a chance to set up like glass. Out past Lake Renwick the fields give a storm nowhere to stop, so the same driveway can fill in again behind you; the work is watching the wind as much as the sky. There's a particular pride in the hour before dawn along Route 59, when the lots sit black and square and the walkways read clean under the lights. That is the whole aim — a drive opened before the first cup of coffee, and a village that simply goes about its Tuesday.
