Weather reaches Oak Ridge from the west and it comes uphill, which is why a storm that leaves two inches down in the valley can leave six on this ridge. JN Lawns And Landscape LLC plans for both halves of that bargain: mowing, trimming and edging while the ground is green, and plowing once the forecast turns. Winter driveways here run long and often on a grade, so they get opened early and opened again — walkways cleared to the surface, ice treated, the banks pushed back so the next storm has somewhere to go. By April the same properties get a cleanup and the first cut of the year. The pleasure is in the contrast: a mowed line in July, a bare black driveway at six on a January morning.
