Up in the state's northwest corner the roads run true to the compass and the Michigan line is only a few fields off, which leaves a lawn facing the weather head-on. Superior Yard Works keeps those places in order — mowing, string trimming, edging along drives and walkways, and the cleanups that bookend the mowing months. Wind is the constant here: it dries a yard fast after rain, and it also fills a fence line with whatever the county has been growing. Cutting straight across a big open lot is its own discipline, and the passes get laid to be looked at from the road. When the first hard frost comes the mowers finish, the leaves are gathered, and the property is left square for winter.
