Out toward Solvay the ground drops away off the escarpment, and on a clear February night the cold pools in the streets below Split Rock. Moros Lawn Care & Snow Removal is out working in it, plowing and shoveling driveways while the thermometer sits in the single digits and the snow squeaks underfoot. Winter here is never one event; it's a long series of them, and the task is to make each one gone before morning.
