East of Capac the land lets go of its hills entirely and the sections run flat to the horizon, corn on one side, hay on the other, the headwaters of the Belle River threading quietly between them. Lawns out here have room to sprawl, and in August they take the heat straight on with only a windbreak row of maples for shade. AuSable Lawn & Landscape keeps that ground mowed and tidy — regular cutting, string trimming around posts and gardens, edging along walks and drives, and cleanups when the leaves finally give up in October. On a clear evening in Mussey Township you can take in three miles of countryside at once, and a well-kept yard stands out against all that open ground. That contrast is the whole point of the work.
