October in the coulees below Spring Grove turns everything amber, and the spring-fed creeks run cold and loud under the shade. Driftstone Landscaping keeps yards mowed, edged and cleaned through that turn of the year, working the pockets of level ground the limestone hills are willing to allow. Leaf work down here is a long project rather than a single afternoon, because oak and maple let go in stages and the piles come off in stages to match. The sun drops across the valley by four, and the last pass of the day leaves a lawn looking combed. Come April the same properties get their opening cleanup, raked out and cut short so the season can start on clean ground.
