Canadaway Creek runs through Fredonia the whole year, dark water between white banks in January and low green shade in August, and Muldowney Bros. Lawn Care, LLC works both versions of that town. Winter means routes: driveways and lots opened in order, again after the next round, the truck circling back until the pavement is honest and the mailbox is reachable. Summer means the trailer gate down at first light, decks spinning, trimming close, lawns brought back into even shape week after week. Two brothers' worth of equipment, one continuous obligation to the same properties. Around Fredonia and the neighboring towns, the same names appear on the mowing list in June and the plow list in December.
