The day starts at sunrise, when Linden's newer subdivisions are still under dew and the cul-de-sacs have not woken up yet. Time Lines Lawn Care moves through them in order — mow, trim, edge, blow the walks clean, on to the next drive. Keeping a rhythm is most of the craft: grass cut on time never gets away from you, not even in an August week that wants to run wild. By the hour the heat arrives, a whole street stands even. The route holds to Linden and the towns close at hand.
