Some nights the squall crosses the ice of Anchor Bay and Chesterfield Township wakes under six inches that were not there at bedtime. Ricardo's snow plowing works exactly those hours — the drifted end of a driveway, the path to the front door, the apron the county plow packed shut on its way by. There is a specific satisfaction in a drive opened before the alarm goes off, headlights swinging in and back out while the block sleeps on. Plowing, shoveling and winter-long service, for the streets between the water and I-94. Winter here does not negotiate, so the truck simply goes out again.
