In December the low ground along Black Brook goes rust-colored and the light quits by four, so the year's last cleanups get finished in a hurry. Sean Flynn Landscape Services works right up to that edge — mowing and trimming while there is still grass, clearing leaves while there is still daylight, then switching over to plowing and shoveling once the first real storm lines up off the coast. Snow in Easton is rarely tidy; it comes wet, it drifts, and it wants moving more than once. Getting a drive open before the morning commute is a small kindness with a lot of hours standing behind it. Come April the mowers come back out and the whole thing starts over.
