The first trains out of Long Branch leave before the sky has any color in it, and after a storm somebody has to make the drive to the station possible. Mark's Landscaping LLC plows for that hour — driveways opened, walkways cleared, salt down on the ice that forms where the shovel stopped. In the other half of the year the same attention goes into mowing, trimming and edging, week after week, so the yard never gets ahead of anyone. This town asks for both, sometimes within a month of each other. Being the outfit that shows up either way is the job.
