About Mark Yeadon Snowplowing

By February the snowbanks along M-123 stand taller than the mailboxes and the plow cut through town looks like a corridor carved out of the north itself. Newberry does not get dusted; it gets buried, storm after storm, and Mark Yeadon Snowplowing works through every round of it — driveways and lots pushed open, walks cleared, banks set back so there is somewhere to put the next foot. Widening matters as much as clearing up here: a drive that is not opened out in December has nowhere left to go by March. There is a particular hush at five in the morning, headlights out on fresh white and nobody else awake yet. Then the blade drops, and by breakfast Luce County can get where it is going.
