November over the fields off Pioneer Drive: brown grass, a low sun, and leaves banking into the fence corners until the wind rearranges them again. M Frederick Landscaping closes the year out in New Providence with the last mowings and the yard raked down to bare turf, then meets the first flurries that dust the very same ground. Drives plowed, walks cleared, steps salted — the work changes tools inside a week and keeps its purpose exactly. Spring swings the whole thing back around: grass rising, the mower out, the edge re-cut along the walk. A property looked after in both directions never has to be rescued in either.
