Geneva sits at the head of Seneca Lake, and on an August afternoon the heat rolls up twelve miles of open water and gets caught right there at the top of it. Grass responds accordingly — fast, thick, relentless — which is exactly the sort of problem Grass Assassins lawn mowing exists to solve. The rounds cover yards on the slopes above the lakefront and out along the streets that run back toward the vineyard country, mowing, trimming and edging on a schedule the growing season demands. A hot day ends well when the last lawn is cut, the lines are even, and the lake below has gone flat and silver. Come October, the work turns to leaves and the long tidy-up before the cold blows in off the water.
