April in Saratoga Springs is mud and possibility — meltwater running in the gutters on the hill toward Skidmore, sand from the winter still lying along every curb, lawns matted flat and waiting. Spring City Yard Work & Landscaping starts its year right there, raking out the winter thatch, hauling off the fallen limbs and getting beds cleared before the daffodils push through. Mulch goes down fresh, mowing begins as soon as the grass will hold a line, and trimming keeps the edges honest from that day forward. Planting beds get shaped, weeded and kept. By the time the town fills up for summer, the yards along these streets look like they have been waiting for company.
