April in Macoupin County comes on green and fast: two warm days after a rain and the rolling ground around Staunton is suddenly ahead of everybody. Corona Lawncare LLC gets out in front of it — first cuts, edges reopened along drives and walks, trimming around trees, posts and beds, spring cleanup hauling off whatever winter left behind. Through summer the cut keeps a rhythm, set higher in the heat and tighter once the rain returns. Then autumn arrives, and the leaves, and a yard put away neat for the cold. Watching a lawn come back is one of the better parts of living where the year actually turns.
