Great exercise 
coito, watering is an issue here ... although many people have a supply of rainwater and/or have done away with lawn in favour of drought resistant/native gardens.
Leaf blowers .. I hate the wasteful, noisy things.

Re: Green Lawn Care
My lawn sucks up so much water all summer that if is green, it is not really "green" anymore.

My neighbor thinks I'm crazy -- but, I am done with my yard just as quickly as he is with his, and I never have to deal with oil, plugs and gasoline, and I'm never struggle with the pull starter trying to get the damn thing to work.
