Late August, seven in the evening, and the light coming off Lake Nicolet turns every mowed lawn on the east side a shade greener than it was at noon. The Sugar Island ferry makes its crossing; somebody's sprinkler ticks away in the shade. CJH Yard Care spends its days getting yards ready for exactly that hour — mowing, trimming, edging along walks and drives, and hauling off the clippings and the leaves when the time comes. Summer up here is counted in weeks rather than months, so a yard that looks right on an ordinary Thursday is worth the trouble. That is the standard the work gets held to.
