A couple of folks down the street have artificial grass for their front lawn. Easy to tell it's fake when it's sunny. A little harder to tell when it's cloudy and there's debris (e.g. leaves, branches) on it. (It's usually cloudy in OR, right?
) At first I thought "Eww, that's tacky." Always had considered it a step closer to having pink plastic flamingos in the yard. But the more I think about it, the more I like it. I'm having a hard time coming up with how it could be "almost as much maintenance as real grass" as brucey claims... seems to me that it'd basically be "set & forget" (just an occasional stint with the blower) especially if it's not gonna be walked on hardly at all.
