First light comes up silver on Deal Lake, and the coves along the Wanamassa shoreline hold that shine until the first mower starts. Cross Cut Lawn Care takes Ocean Township mornings early, while dew still weighs the blades down and the cut comes off clean and dark. Mowing, edging, string trimming and seasonal cleanups make up the round, and the pleasure of it is in the finish: a lawn striped straight, a border line you could follow with your eye. Sandy Monmouth County ground grows a lawn that wants attention, and attention is the whole trade. By the time the day heats up over the neighborhood, the yards are done and the street looks like someone cares about it.
