On a summer evening the water at Lake Hastings goes flat and the cottonwoods start up their papery talk, and that is about the hour the day's heat finally lets go. DLA Mowing works that cooler end of the afternoon — grass cut when it isn't stressed, trimmed around the mailbox post and the shed, edged where lawn meets driveway. Nebraska turf can go from lush to thirsty in a single dry week, so the schedule stays regular and the height stays sensible. There's something quietly good about pulling away from a yard as the light turns long and every line still shows. Straightforward lawn care for Hastings and the small towns nearby.
