Rochelle keeps time by freight. Two mainlines cross at the diamond east of downtown, and the horns carry over the whole town — summer nights with the windows open, winter mornings when the air is too cold to soften anything. Aguilera Lawn Care Services works both halves of that calendar, mowing, trimming and edging through the growing months, then plowing drives and lots and salting walks once the prairie wind starts moving snow sideways. Out here the ground is flat enough that a storm has nothing to slow it down, and what falls in one county tends to end up drifted across another. Whether it is a lawn held even through July or a driveway opened before the first shift in January, the work is measured the same way: by how little anyone has to think about it.
