By November the low ground along the creeks near North Craig holds fog until midmorning, and the yards are more leaf than grass. Willis Outdoor Services does the season's last honest work — final mows, leaf cleanup, beds and fence corners cleared, the drive blown down to bare concrete. Outdoor work in this country is a matter of timing: get ahead of the wet leaves and a lawn wakes up green in April instead of matted and thin. There is a quiet satisfaction in shutting the gate on a yard that is properly put away for winter. Mowing, trimming, edging and seasonal cleanup around North Craig.
