Three in the morning in Parkside is about as quiet as this city gets: the stone walls at Forest Lawn under fresh snow, no tracks in the street but the plow's. Everett Plowing Services works that hour, pushing driveways clear to the asphalt and cutting a straight path from the front door to the car. Snow is placed where it will not block a corner sightline, and salt goes down where the day's melt is going to refreeze at dusk. Seasonal plowing means the same houses are covered storm after storm, without anyone having to make a call. Waking to a cleared drive is a small mercy Buffalo appreciates deeply.
