Where Turtle Creek slips into the Rock River, an early July morning arrives with fog on the water and dew heavy enough to soak a boot through. Maya-Bruns Landscaping is out in it, mowing before the heat sets in, trimming the creek-side edges, keeping beds and borders clearly drawn. Bottomland grass grows hard and fast down there, so the schedule stays tight from May straight through September. When the year turns cold, those same properties get plowed, their walks opened and their icy corners salted through every Rock County thaw and freeze. The work changes shape; the care for the ground does not.
