Pretty cool. But this boomer obsession with grassy lawns is ridiculous. Want to save water? Stop growing grass. Idiots.  If you live in a desert, make your immediate surroundings match the climate--why struggle for the opposite?. Cactuses and succulents would do just perfectly, landscaped around rocks sand and gravel.

When I was growing up lawns were meant to be played on....now people treat lawns like priceless heirlooms. I've never been a fan of applying or having someone else apply all sorts of chemicals to a lawn. 

About 20 years ago a neighbor(since moved) became obsessed with his lawn. He would spend 10-12 hours each day working on the lawn.  His lawn was ELITE golf course level but it cost him thousands of dollars each year.  He was draining his savings.  After years of applying chemicals to his lawn his health(including mental health) headed downhill quickly

Lawns = Spending time, money and resources,  while poisoning the environment, to cultivate and harvest a useless crop.  

You usually don’t want the disaster lawn on the neighborhood, I think for some it’s a competition where their age and athletic ability won’t hinder them so they can excel , maybe it’s just a guy challenge to take on , it’s also a way to have some peace of mind and time away from wire and kids lol
