October on the side streets, the big maples letting go all at once, porches banked with leaves by Thursday. Shane's Handyman & Lawn Care Service works those Cortland blocks right through the turn of the year — mowing, trimming and clearing leaves while the grass is still growing, then plowing, shoveling and salting once the walks begin to glaze. Old houses come with narrow drives and awkward corners, and getting into them cleanly is a skill worth having. What's left behind is a clean walk and a yard set right for the week ahead. Neighborhood work, done one address at a time.
