The red cliffs above Jemez Pueblo catch the sun before the valley does, so the first hour of the day up here is all warm stone and cool shade. Clarkslawnbarbers takes the name seriously: a lawn gets cut to one even length, the edges get squared, the corners get finished by hand. Mowing along the Jemez River bottom means working ground that stays greener than the country around it, and trimming holds the boundary between the yard and the sage exactly where it belongs. Seasonal cleanups take care of what falls and what blows down off the mesa. A finished yard here sits like a neat green square under red rock, which never stops being a pleasing thing to look at.
