Trucks are already moving on Territorial Road before sunrise, hauling in toward Benton Harbor's fruit market while most of the city is still dark. Joe's Lawn Care Service keeps its own early hours: mowing, trimming, edging and seasonal cleanups through the growing months, then plowing and shoveling drives, lots and sidewalks once winter takes over. Southwest Michigan can hand out an eighty-degree October afternoon and eight inches of snow two weeks later. The equipment changes; the route and the early start do not. A clean cut in July, a clear drive in January — the same day's work in different weather.
