In late August the light comes long and low down Haviland Hollow, and lawns hold their color right up to the old stone walls that quilt this end of Putnam County. Allstate Landscaping spends those weeks mowing, edging and trimming, keeping grass even where former pasture ground rolls and dips underfoot. Come November the same properties ask for something else entirely, and the company turns to plowing, shoveling walks and hauling snow back off the turnarounds. Hollow roads here fill fast and give up their ice slowly, so a second visit after the wind shifts is simply part of the job. A yard that looked cared for in September should look cared for under six inches of snow too.
