At four in the morning in January the wind crosses Lake St. Clair with nothing between it and Fraser but flat ground and mile roads. Metro Snow Removal & Lawn Care, LLC is out in it — plowing driveways and lots and the side streets behind them so the first car of the morning backs onto pavement and never gives it a thought. That is the whole point: the person who wakes to a cleared drive should have no story to tell about it. Come May the same trucks trade blades for mowers and the routes turn green, with cutting, trimming and edging for homes and businesses right through the growing months. Two seasons, one town, and neither half worth doing halfway.
