Saturday morning in May, dew still heavy under the creek willows, and the whole neighborhood smells green. Lowies Lawn Care spends those hours mowing Cortland yards, edging the walks, trimming the fence lines and clearing the last of winter out of the beds. The work is unhurried and exact; a lawn cut at the right height in spring carries itself through August. Small yards get the same attention as big ones, right down to the last corner behind the shed. By afternoon the mower is quiet and the street looks like summer has officially been let in.
