November sits between the two halves of the year up by Thirteen Mile, where St. Clair Shores runs into Roseville — leaves still coming down, the first hard frost already in the forecast. Lovati's Outdoor Services LLC works both halves. Through the growing season it is mowing, trimming, edging and cleanups; through winter it is plowing, shoveling walks and salting the ice that forms once the sun drops. Most years the changeover happens inside a single week, and the trucks are ready for it. Outdoor work here means learning to like whichever weather shows up.
