A route learned in leaf season gets driven again in white. HRK Services mows and maintains Vernon properties through the green months, then bolts on the plow when the wind swings around to the northwest. Knowing a driveway in October — its slope, its soft shoulder, the low spot that puddles — is what makes it straightforward to plow in January. Grass cut, beds kept, then snow pushed and walks opened while the street is still dark. Two trades, one set of roads, learned by heart.
