The LaPlatte runs right behind Hinesburg village, dropping over its ledge with a sound you stop hearing after a week of living there. Landluxe Property Maintenance keeps village lawns and the ones out along the side roads: mowing on a schedule, trimming, bed edges held sharp, cleanups in spring and again in autumn. Village yards sit close together, which makes tidy work contagious — one clean edge tends to lift the whole street. There is a particular pleasure in the last five minutes of a job, blowing the walk clear and looking back down a straight line of cut grass. Then on to the next one before the afternoon gets away.
