August in Westville is all sky — wide over the river, gulls working the far bank, heat already sitting on the grass by ten in the morning. Sunny Day Landscaping gets out ahead of it, mowing, edging and trimming while the lawns still hold the night's cool. Beds are mulched to keep the moisture in, borders cut back, clippings blown off the walks before the truck moves along. When fall arrives the same yards want their leaves taken off and the season closed out clean. A cut lawn on a bright day is a modest ambition, honorably met.
