West of the Garden State Parkway the township turns to pitch pine and white sand, and the neighborhoods of Ocean Acres sit down among the trees like clearings. Beyond The Shore Landscaping keeps those lawns cut and trimmed where the pines shed needles all season and the soil drains as fast as you can water it. Late-August evenings out there smell like warm resin, and the mower's last pass lays a green line right up to the tree line. Come January the same streets narrow with snow, and the truck works them one by one until the drives are open to the pavement. Two very different kinds of work on one map, learned street by street.
