Kent rises to Mount Nimham, the highest ground in Putnam County, and weather here arrives with that elevation in mind — a degree colder, an inch deeper, an hour earlier than the valleys below. ARB Creations works both halves of that bargain: mowing and lawn care through the green months, plowing and snow clearing once the ridge goes white. There is one kind of satisfaction in a lawn cut clean to its borders on a July evening, and an entirely different one in a driveway opened down to bare pavement while the fire tower is still lost in cloud. The hamlets underneath — Kent Cliffs, Ludingtonville, Carmel — ask for both, sometimes in the same week. Every property gets finished the way its owner would finish it, given the machine and the morning.
