Come June, Whitmore is green to the horizon, and a yard has to hold its own against a landscape doing the same thing on a much larger scale. Northline Solutions LLC keeps them holding: mowing on a steady week, trimming around posts and mailbox stands, edging the walk so the concrete gets its full width back, and clearing the cuttings off the sidewalk before the truck pulls away. Spring brings the first cut and the winter mat raked out; fall brings the leaves down off the yard maples in one windy week. There is a particular satisfaction in a stripe pattern that shows up an hour before sunset, when the light comes in low across the fields. Whitmore and the nearby townships.
