Richland Creek runs quiet through Swansea, and the trail beside it fills the moment metro-east weather gives anybody an excuse. ENE Exteriors LLC works the yards and pavement along those streets all year: mowing, trimming, edging and cleanups in season, then opening the drives, clearing walks and salting once the damp river cold sets in. Winter here is a negotiation — an inch of wet snow, a freeze behind it, and every driveway apron turns slick by morning. Clearing early and coming back with salt is the difference between an ordinary Tuesday and a careful one. By April the same lawns are up and asking for their first cut.
