In Manistique the June light hangs on until nearly ten at night, and the grass makes use of every hour it is given. TJ Lawn Care works that long northern stretch with regular cutting, string trimming, edging and the cleanups that open and close the year. The river comes down through town under the old siphon bridge and out to Lake Michigan, and the yards along it stay damp and thick well into a dry July. When the season turns up here it turns fast — one hard week and the work becomes leaves and a final low cut. Short summers make people particular about how a lawn looks, and that suits this trade exactly.
