After dark in St. Clair you can stand at the water's edge and watch the lights of Ontario burning steady a half-mile off, the whole black river running between. Total Service LLC works this side of it right through the calendar: mowing, trimming and edging in the green months, mulch into the beds, cleanups in spring and again when the maples let go. Then the year turns hard, and the work becomes plowing driveways, clearing lots, shoveling walks and salting the ice that river air makes so willingly. There's something satisfying in the two extremes — a lawn cut to a straight line in July, a driveway scraped down to clean pavement in January. A town this close to that much water gets both, fully. St. Clair, Marysville, East China, Marine City and the country roads around them.
