Snow is an occasional visitor this far south, and when it does reach Franklinville it comes wet and heavy and bends the pines along the road. Mickey's Landscaping & Tree Removal is out for those storms — plowing driveways, opening the walks, laying salt where the melt will freeze again after sundown. Most of the year, though, the work is grass: weekly mowing, edges run clean, hedges trimmed, mulch laid, and the long fall cleanup once the oaks let go. Between Franklinville, Malaga and Newfield the properties run big and open, and there is something satisfying about turning a rough couple of acres back into a lawn. The trucks are ready either way, whatever the sky decides to do.
