Come October the low ground toward Millburg and the Paw Paw River bottoms turns gold, and then one windy night takes it all down at once. Simms Services meets that with rakes, blowers and a truck: leaf removal, cleanups at both turns of the year, and the mowing, trimming and edging that carry a lawn from April to the last cut of the season. Southwest Michigan autumns run warm and wet, so grass keeps growing under the leaves long after people stop watching for it. Clearing it off before it mats down is what saves the lawn for spring. There is a particular pleasure in a yard at dusk with not one leaf left on it.
