Up on Paris Hill the elevation buys you extra winter — what falls as rain down in the valley comes down white the whole way. Delhi Landscaping is out in it well before four, opening drives along the ridge roads so the first trip of anyone's day is an easy one. When the ground thaws those same routes turn green, and the work shifts to mowing, edging and hauling off everything the cold left behind. The changeover is a good day: plow parked, mower on the trailer, spring cleanups underway on lawns that were snowbanks a month earlier. Either half of the year, the measure holds — a place someone can pull into without thinking twice.
