On a summer Friday you can hear the dragway out on the edge of Milan, engines carrying flat across the countryside the way sound does out here. MI CustomScapes LLC spends those long evenings the way it spends most of them — finishing a route of mowing, trimming and edging while the light holds past nine o'clock. When the year flips, the trucks go out with plows instead, opening driveways and clearing walks after the storms track through. Flat country takes wind, and wind takes a stubborn kind of pushing back. Whichever season it is, the work ends the same way: a property squared away.
