Weather here arrives from the west with plenty of warning: a shelf of cloud out over the flats, wind flipping the leaves silver-side up, then rain hard enough to run the North Branch of the Ecorse full and brown. Great Lakes Lawn Care Services, LLC works around those storms and right behind them, because Taylor grass takes off in the two days after a soaking. The route means mowing on schedule, trimming where the wet ground gets soft, edging the walks back to a clean line, and clearing every clipping off the concrete. Wide sky, big water nearby, small tidy yards underneath it all. The contrast never gets old.
