When the hardwoods on the Butman Township ridges turn in early October, the color is spectacular for about ten days and then it is all on the ground. Williams Lawn Care meets that with cleanups and a final cut, and meets the rest of the year with the steady mowing, trimming and edging that keeps a yard from getting away from anyone. Grass grows in a hurry through this short northern summer, fed by rain and long evening light, so the schedule is what holds everything together. Level cuts, tight borders, nothing left on the drive: small results that add up to a yard someone is glad to pull into. Come spring the route runs again, starting with the winter's litter raked out of the grass.
