Out past Buck Pond the lots run narrow and long toward the water, cottages grown into houses, lawns squeezed between the drive and the seawall. KV Landscaping mows and trims that kind of ground, where wind off the lake scours everything and the grass comes in uneven bursts. Landscaping work fills the shoulders of the year — beds shaped, plantings set, cleanups in spring and again when it all comes down. Along Edgemere Drive an evening cut carries out over the water, and then the mower stops and there is only the lake. Yards near that shoreline are earned rather than inherited.
