Along the old canal line and the slow Seneca River, the ground holds water into June and the grass beside it comes in thick. FAS Lawncare works the properties between there and the village — mowing, trimming and seasonal cleanups on a schedule that keeps a yard from ever getting ahead of itself. Late August afternoons are the real test: heat sitting perfectly still, the mower's line the only thing moving anywhere in sight. By evening the grass is short, the edges are true, and the place looks put back together. Savannah and the small towns along the canal.
