Behind the Lake George village streets sit small back yards you would never guess at from the road, fenced squares of grass under maples where the lake breeze finds its way in on a hot afternoon. Pooper scooper picker upper keeps those yards in order with mowing, trimming close along fences and posts, edging at the walks, and the yard cleanups that come with spring thaw and autumn leaf drop. Short mountain summers mean the grass arrives in a rush and wants steady attention from June through September. A tidy back lawn with French Mountain green behind it and the whole summer still ahead is a simple, good thing. A yard people actually want to sit in is the point of the work.
