Route 4 runs the ridge through Northwood past the antique shops, and on either side the land drops away to water — Northwood Lake, Pleasant Lake, Jenness Pond glinting through the trees. Roy Boy's Total Yard Care LLC handles the mowing, trimming, mulching and season-opening and season-closing cleanups for camps, cottages and year-round homes strung along those shores and the back roads off them. Lakeside yards grow soft and shaggy in a hurry once June arrives. Cut them right and the property opens up — water visible from the porch again, the edge along the drive drawn tight. Come autumn the pines let down needles by the bushel, and the rakes go back to work.
