Dew stays heavy on Kaufman lawns until the sun clears the rooftops, and the first cut of the day leaves a dark stripe you can pick out from the street. Murrah's Landscaping & Irrigation works that pattern deliberately — straight passes, direction turned week to week so the blades stand up instead of laying over. Edging follows the concrete, the trimmer takes the corners, and the walks are cleared before anything else. A striped lawn on a bright morning is a small piece of order in the day. The same passes get made all week across Kaufman and the towns north of it.
