I received my samples of Pegra (Costco) artificial lawn today. It looks real convincing when looking at it from just a few feet away... still, very spendy and a lot of initial work.
I haven't given up on the idea, but it might be a couple years for me to find a good deal on the turf.

Heck, my dream is to concrete the yard.
Don't get me wrong, I like the look and feel of a nicely kept lawn and shrubs, but in a smallish suburban plot, I just don't see the point when I'm not outside in the yard anyhow.
Just the other day I realized the only time I'm in my yard is when I'm mowing. I don't even mind mowing either, I just don't have time to do it regularly enough to keep up with the Joneses.

Portland area, so nevermind to me too. Rock wouldn't keep up the image well enough in my neighborhood, where people either keep on on yard work, or hire a professional. There are some perfect lawns within a block of my house too.
I would like the look of a well kept lawn with minimal time and money spent.
