Lawn mower blades

Aside from the golf course look, what benefit do you derive from your
lawn? In my mind, the grass in front of my house is nothing more than
a weed. It serves no purpose whatsoever. If it was up to me, we'd be
growing edible vegetables instead (our vegetable garden is in the back
yard).
Well, let's see... when the kids want to play a game of pickup football
or softball, we have a full-sized field with grass short enough to run
effectively on. When I want to fly my sailplanes, I have a place to land
gracefully without dinging up the leading edges. When I want to fly my
old Telemaster, I have a perfect runway for both takeoffs and landings.
When I want to practice my short irons, I have a nice lobbing range. If
we just want to get out the easy chairs and sit out by the pond for a
while with a cold one, we don't have to wade through ankle-deep "weeds".
My vegetable garden is in back. My play yard is in front. Never the
twain shall meet.
