Ocean Drive in a January storm is all wind and gray water — spray coming over the rocks at Brenton Point, snow moving sideways across the road, nothing out there but gulls and salt. All American Landscape & Masonry runs snow work through those nights, plowing driveways and lots clear to pavement, cutting shovel paths to doors and gates, and treating the stone walks and steps that Newport has more of than most places. Wet coastal snow settles heavy and hardens fast once the temperature slips behind the storm, so a route gets driven more than once. Daylight is the payoff: bare drives, open gates, nothing left in anybody's way. Newport does not stop for weather, and neither does the truck.
