There is a particular gold that comes down over Sterling Heights in late August, the light running long across the yards between 15 Mile and 18 Mile while the crickets start up toward the Clinton River. Lawn care in that hour is all about lines — the cut running true, the border along the walk crisp enough to read from the street. Then the year turns, the clippers come down out of Canada, and snow removal takes the front seat: sidewalks opened, lots pushed back to their corners, the drive ready before the first alarm goes off. Summit Snow & Lawn Services keeps both books open across Sterling Heights and the towns beside it. Two seasons, one habit — leave the place looking looked-after.
