The first honest thaw in Pinconning is an event of its own — the ditches run, the yards come back matted and gray, and the whole town looks like it needs a comb. Lauzon Property Services starts right there, with spring cleanups that pull winter out of the beds and off the turf, then settles into mowing, trimming and edging for the long middle of the year. Out between US-23 and the bay the growing season is short enough to take seriously; nobody wants to lose a week of it. By October the leaves are gathered and the lawn is put to bed square and tidy. Green, then gold, then quiet — and around it comes again.
