Aj’s lawn care

About Aj’s lawn care

Late in the day the heat finally lets go of Pleasanton, and the light comes in low and gold across the mesquite along the Atascosa River. That's the hour Aj's lawn care works into — mower still warm, the last edge cut clean beside a caliche drive, the dust settling back where it belongs. South Texas grass grows in bursts, quiet for weeks and then all at once after a rain, so keeping ahead of it means turning up when you said you would. The work is mowing, edging, trimming the fence lines and clearing the walks, for houses in town and places strung out toward Jourdanton and Poteet. A yard that looks squared away as the evening cools is a fine thing to leave behind.
