When the wind sets in off Lake Ontario, Adams takes its snow in bands — an hour of nothing, then a whiteout, then nothing again — and a driveway fills in faster than any forecast admits. B&B property maintenance runs at both ends of that year: plowing, shoveling walks and salting through the cold months, then mowing, trimming and cleanups once the frost lets go of the ground. The good part of winter is the four a.m. pass, headlights on a clean stretch of asphalt, somebody's morning made easy before they are even awake. The summer version of that feeling is a lawn cut level with the edges cut in sharp. Around Adams, Adams Center and the farms out toward Rodman, it amounts to the same thing: a place that works.
