Look west from Athens on a clear day and the Catskill wall stands right there above the fields, close enough to tell you exactly what kind of weather is on its way. Taylor's Landscaping reads that sky year-round — plowing, walkway clearing and salting when the storms come down off the mountains, and mowing, trimming, edging, mulch and full cleanups once the valley greens up again. Spring here is mud and matted grass and a lot of raking before anything looks like a lawn, and getting a property from that to its first clean cut is one of the better days of the year. Winter's version of the same feeling is a driveway opened to the pavement before anybody needs it. Athens, Coxsackie, Catskill, Cairo and the surrounding Greene County towns.
