Does grass block your car from leaving the driveway?

No. And neither does snow.

When I did have a car and the parking lot was full of snow, I just drove trough the MF and taught it a lesson.

No, but it's definitely quite a bit more work to cut an entire yard of grass compared to just the snow behind your car so you can get out of the driveway.

I was going to say something like this. I live in a climate where we get about 200 cm of snow every winter, and winter is still a relief to me when it comes to outdoor property maintenance. Grass, weeds, flowers, watering, etc. is a lot more work than the occasional snowfall.

Depends how long your driveway is. But you can also put off mowing until later if you need to go somewhere.

Also, completely disregarding that the kids might wanna grow up with snow, or colorful leaves in fall, etc.


I'm telling you, growing up in a place with no seasons, it almost seems like you missed a facet of your childhood with rarely getting the chance to play in snow, build snow forts, play in a pile of fall leaves, etc.
