About Dougies landscaping and plowing

Mount Utsayantha keeps watch over Stamford, and in January it holds its white a good while longer than the valley below. Up in the western Catskills the cold has real conviction: snow comes sideways off the high pastures, drifts across the state road, and refills a driveway before the coffee is done. Dougies landscaping and plowing takes that on with a blade and a stubborn schedule, opening drives and lots so the morning can happen on time. There is a plain pride in the first pass down a buried lane — the clean shoulder left behind, the walk shoveled all the way to the step. It is a mountain-town winter, and it asks for somebody willing to be up in it.
