After a night storm, Westminster's common goes perfectly blank, bandstand and all, until the first plow puts a mark on it. Hoffman Landscaping and Patio, LLC spends those hours on Academy Hill and the streets below, opening driveways, cutting the plow-line back from the mailboxes, shoveling the front walks. Salt goes down where a slope aims a driveway straight at the road. The trucks work while the town sleeps, then come back for a second round once the wind rearranges everything. A cleared drive at daybreak is a small thing that changes the whole shape of somebody's morning.
