November on the Crescent end of Clifton Park is the hinge of the year — the last leaves off the oaks one week, the first plowable inch the next. Garcia's Landscaping & Snow Removal LLC works both sides of that hinge: mowing, trimming, edging and mulch through the green months, full fall cleanups, then plowing, shoveling and salting once the Mohawk wind turns cold. Same trucks, different blades, the same streets learned twice over. There is a quiet satisfaction in knowing the shape of a driveway in the dark because you mowed its edges in July. Clifton Park, Halfmoon, Crescent, Waterford and Mechanicville.
