The Taconic State Parkway runs the spine of Kent, and on a snowing night its lamps and guardrails are the only straight lines for miles. F&R Landscaping Corp. is out under them before the commute exists — plowing driveways, opening turnarounds, cutting a path from a garage door to a road that is itself still being found. By April the same trucks give way to mowers, and the town's lawns take their first cut while the shoulders are still gritty with sand. Snow removal and lawn care run as one continuous job here; only the color underfoot changes. What holds steady is the moment somebody looks out the window and finds the way already open.
