Flying Pond freezes early and the back roads of Mount Vernon go white and quiet, and that is when the plow work starts. That Guy's Maintenance and More clears driveways, dooryards and walkways here all winter, then comes back in May with the mower for the same properties — cutting, trimming, edging, carrying the leaves off. Central Maine hands this town both extremes: a snowbank taller than a mailbox in February, and grass that wants cutting twice in a single June week. Working both ends of the year means knowing where every culvert and stone lip hides, under snow and under green. Either season, the result is the same kind of open — a driveway you can drive, a yard you can walk barefoot across.
