Six in the morning on a Red Hook side street, dew still silver and the village not quite awake — that is when the week's mowing begins. Cals Lawn Maintenance LLC keeps the lawns behind the white clapboard and the deep front porches on a steady rotation: cut, trimmed and blown off before most people have finished their coffee. Regular maintenance is unglamorous and it is everything, because a yard that never gets away from you never has to be recovered. Spring the beds get opened and cleaned, autumn the leaves get gathered, and in between the grass simply stays right. This is how a whole street comes to look attended to, one lawn at a time.
