The White River takes its time reaching White Lake, looping through cedar and marsh grass before it finally slips out toward the big water. White River Excavating Company LLC mows the yards along those bends, where light soil and dune grass are forever trying to reclaim the edges. Every visit ends the same way: stripes lying straight, the trimmer run along each post and mailbox, the drive blown clean so nothing gets tracked inside. Fall stacks leaves against the porches here, and hauling them off is its own kind of pleasure. Whether the lot is a half acre or five, the work in White River Township gets the same attention.
