Open farm country has one drawback in January: nothing stops the wind. Snow that fell politely overnight gets pushed into hard drifts across the Rives Township roads by morning, and a driveway can disappear twice in a day. Total Property Maintenance LLC plows, shovels the walks and salts the ice, getting a place open before anybody has to go anywhere. When the ground thaws and the culverts run, those same properties get mowing, trimming, edging and the cleanups that open and close a yard. It is one property, watched all the way around the calendar, and nothing has to be explained twice.
