Red Bank took its name from the clay banks that catch the light along the Navesink, and that river still sets the tempo here — fog on the water in the morning, wind by mid-afternoon. Alan Soden Landscaping & Lawn works to it, mowing and trimming through the long green months and turning to the plow once the first storm comes up the coast. There is a plain satisfaction in a lawn cut in clean parallel bands, the edges crisp against the walk, every clipping blown off the drive. There is a different one in a driveway scraped down to pavement and salted while the house is still dark. Both are the same promise kept, just in different weather.
