Back in the day, it fell to my older brother to mow the lawn with a *push* mower. He would come in the house, huffing and puffing, and beg our father to asphalt the lawn and paint it green. ;)

LOL! How big was the yard?

My dad had one of those mowers.

The ‘big box’ stores still sell em.

Only good for city lot size lawns though...

Back to CA & water usage rules:

They have time limits (5 minutes?) as well as time-of-day (before 10am, after 6pm I think) and what days you can water (2x a week, 3x at most)

Many many people have put rocks and cacti in their yards where the grass used to be.
