There is no ridge between here and Lake Huron, and you feel it in a January wind that reaches your back door with nothing spent. Flatlanders Lawn and Snow Maintenance LLC is named for that ground and works it all the way around the year — mowing, trimming and edging while it is green, plowing, shoveling and salting once it drifts. Level land is honest land: it shows every stripe and every skipped pass, and snow lies across it evenly instead of piling wherever a slope decides. The upside is that a drive opened properly stays open, right down to the pavement. Simple country to work in, if you do not mind the wind.
