Salem Township is still mostly fence line and open field, gravel roads running straight until a hayfield decides otherwise. Neher Perfect Lawn and Landscape Services works those long lots through the green months, mowing, trimming and edging until a yard looks like it was drawn rather than cut. There is real satisfaction in the last pass of an August afternoon, the stripes laid down even and the clippings cleared away. Come January the same ground goes white, and the work turns to plowing driveways and clearing walks so a family can get out to Six Mile Road without a second thought. One township, two very different kinds of morning, and both of them worth doing right.
