There is a great deal of paint on the walls in Burlington's South End, so a bright shirt behind a mower fits right into the picture. The Man in Pink Mowing keeps city lawns cut and clean — mowing on a regular round, string trimming the corners a mower cannot reach, edging drives and walks, mulching beds, and clearing leaves once the season tips over. Vermont's growing months are short enough that every week counts, and a yard skipped for two of them announces itself. Nothing complicated about the result: even height, sharp lines, clippings gone. It feels good to look back down a street and see the difference.
