The straight roads across Gates still follow the old farm lots, and at first light in early June the grass along them is soaked and the air smells as though the whole town has just been cut. Sharp Blades Mowing Services, LLC starts the day out there — mowing, trimming around posts and hydrants, edging drive lines, and clearing clippings so nothing is left drying on a walk. A blade that cuts rather than tears is what makes a lawn look finished the day after, not just the hour after, and that is the standard the work is held to. By evening a street's worth of yards can go from shaggy to sharp. Gates and its neighbors are the route.
