From the high ground near Province Lake the Ossipee range sits blue on the horizon, and by the middle of May Wakefield is green the whole way to it. Wyatt's Stump Solutions starts the mowing season right there, with the first cut of the year — thick, wet, and twice the work of any other. From then on it is the weekly pass, trimming around the posts and ledges, edges recut where frost pushed them out of line. Winter sand and deadfall come off in April; in November the leaves go down to bare turf. A yard kept this way looks simple, which is the entire point.
