Start early enough in Ferris and the dew is still on everything, the air is cool, and a mower is the loudest thing for a mile in any direction. Menzel Mowing keeps to that hour — mowing on a regular week-in, week-out schedule, trimming what the deck cannot reach, edging the drive, and blowing the walks clean before pulling out. There is nothing complicated about any of it, which is precisely why it has to be done consistently: same day, same height, same tidy finish, so the yard never gets away from anybody. Midsummer the grass slows down and the schedule flexes with it. By fall the work turns to leaves, and the same yards get cleared back down to green.
