In Putnam Valley the land is all shoulder and hollow — granite ridges under oak and hickory, roads bending around ponds, Lake Oscawana holding the light long after the hillsides have gone dark. Trees grow tall and leaning here, rooted thin over rock, and a wet October wind can lay one across a driveway without any warning at all. Lussier Tree Service works the removals and the trimming, prunes crowns back off rooflines and wires, and clears the tangle a storm leaves behind. The stretch worth waiting for is the last rake pass down a gravel drive, everything open again and the woods put back in order at the edge of the lawn. From Peekskill Hollow Road out to Oscawana and Roaring Brook, that is the standing offer.
