By the second week of November the maples along the South Lyon streets have let go of everything, and the last mow of the year is really a leaf harvest. kp landscaping is out there for it — one truck, the deck set low, hauling color off the lawns before the first wet snow mats it all down. The rest of the year is the steady part: cutting, trimming, edging and cleanups from the first green push in April through the long humid middle of summer. A short list of things, done the same way each time. And a raked yard in late fall is one of the plainest good feelings there is.
