| Enheduanna | posted 12-Jun-2007 5:35pm No; I've always lived somewhere that had either enough street parking or little-to-no lawn or driveway to park on. |
| Galomorro | posted 12-Jun-2007 6:14pm No, I don't HAVE a yard or driveway. |
| RGirl | posted 12-Jun-2007 6:34pm No large groups here. |
| JessicaWoman99 | posted 12-Jun-2007 9:59pm No never and never cars will get towed away by the Sheriff |
| LindaH | posted 12-Jun-2007 10:11pm Well....... today it was getting kind of full, but due to the way it's shaped, it couldn't be much like a parking lot. Maybe parallel parking. It's drive thru. |
| darkshadowsseeker | posted 12-Jun-2007 11:01pm I don't have a driveway or yard. The closest thing we have to a driveway is the tenant parking lot on the other side of the apartment complex. |
| cloudhugger | posted 13-Jun-2007 12:36am Yes! (hence the idea for the survey) We have a long driveway and a large backyard. we were expecting anywhere from 20 people to 40. So I took my car and parked it at an angle inthe driveway, than 2 other friends parked next to mine. we put a piece of tape to mark the distance, than we moved our cars in leapfrog fashion to see how many lines we could make. After we put the tape down we moved the cars away and found a few long straight sticks and measured 10 feet between each pice of tape and took black spray paint and painted the ines. They look like they have been there for a long time. the compact cars fit in there pretty good, and on the other side of the driveway I painted VIP where my Mary was to park. In the back I put up one way signs so they could drive on one side of the pole barn, park and than drive straight out around to the other side. I put up reflective tape on sticks stuck in buckets to mark where not to drive because they might be tents on the other side of the yard. It was fun.
I truly hope I didn't offend anyone that does not have a driveway. |
| Wackadoo | posted 13-Jun-2007 8:35am All the friggin' time! Particularly each July when FordGuy and I have our annual blow-out party. |
| FordGuy | (reply to Wackadoo) posted 13-Jun-2007 12:00pm July 21, 2007 to be exact. I'll have a beer with ya then. Hell, I'll even have one with ya tonight! |
| gambler | posted 13-Jun-2007 12:16pm No,........... but this is very popular at Wimbledon, The english tennis championship as the club is right in the middle of suburbia and people who live around the area often rent out their front yards for exorbitant prices |
| cloudhugger | I will work myself in there too........maybe... |
| SueBee | posted 14-Jun-2007 12:38am Is this one of those "You may be a redneck...." jokes?? |
| SueBee | (reply to cloudhugger) posted 14-Jun-2007 12:41am That was a brilliant plan! What's the occasion? |
| FordGuy | (reply to cloudhugger) posted 14-Jun-2007 8:51am Y'all are welcome to come! |
| jettles | posted 14-Jun-2007 9:50am no and we don't live close enough to anything that people would ever need to park on my lawn or driveway etc.... |
| cloudhugger | (reply to SueBee) posted 14-Jun-2007 10:26am It is a quarterly meeting that has been held in Michigan for the past 8 years, but my Mary volunteered her new home I always can tell when a meeting goes well by how the kitchen runs. And our kitchen went very well. But the parking!! YAY!! No chaos in the lawn!!! |
| cloudhugger | (reply to SueBee) posted 14-Jun-2007 10:27am NO! tee hee.
BTW- I'm available for making parking near you! git 'er done! |

| cerealkiller | posted 14-Jun-2007 3:01pm Not possible unless I wanted people to run over bushes and hit trees. Driveway can handle 3 cars side by side and I can handle 4-6 cars curbside. This would never happen anyhow. |
| kirst | posted 14-Jun-2007 4:13pm As an adult at my own home, no. But we had large parties when I was younger at my father's house and people parked in our yard. |
| cloudhugger | (reply to FordGuy) posted 14-Jun-2007 5:51pm what the hell........???? |
| cloudhugger | (reply to FordGuy) posted 14-Jun-2007 5:53pm > Nope
Looks to me like you need help with spacing issues... |
| LindaH | posted 14-Jun-2007 9:12pm Fordguy's replies looked like a parking garage! Wooooo..... party at Fordguy's place! |
| Amanda | posted 14-Jun-2007 9:20pm Yeah. This happens when we have big cook-outs. We don't go all out and make parking spaces or anything. People just pull up and park where ever. |
| FordGuy | (reply to cloudhugger) posted 15-Jun-2007 9:53am I'm always spacing. |
| mve17 | posted 15-Jun-2007 10:22am I share my driveway with 8 other flats.. but you know.. I don't charge much |
| cloudhugger | (reply to FordGuy) posted 15-Jun-2007 7:02pm dashes, dots or just left blank? |
| SueBee | (reply to cloudhugger) posted 15-Jun-2007 7:50pm Well, that sounds very cool. I'm glad it went well -- the kitchen is always most important to me, too. (Or rather, the food.) I guess this would only be a redneck thing if you did it every weekend, or every day! There's a household in the town where I deliver mail that always has 10 or 12 cars parked in front of their house -- most of them big 4X4 pickups. That's what the survey reminded me of. |
| cloudhugger | (reply to SueBee) posted 16-Jun-2007 12:11am I think the difference here would be tax write off. Unless it was a 4x4 convention... |
| EyesOfCharisma | posted 16-Jun-2007 10:50am Other, I don't have a home, I just rent. If I was by something that would attract a group needing parking, and I had a yard, I would do it |
| FordGuy | (reply to cloudhugger) posted 16-Jun-2007 10:56am Underscores. |
| cabinfever | posted 18-Jun-2007 12:45am No, I don't have large groups or more than 1 or 2 vehicles over to my home. But my dad has plenty of times. |
| cabinfever | (reply to SueBee) posted 18-Jun-2007 1:30am > Is this one of those "You may be a redneck...."
> jokes?? You might be a redneck if you lay old carpet in your driveway as weed barrier. Which is something my hubby and I did about ten days ago... had all this old carpet we had torn out of our house after we bought it... it was taking up room in the garage, and Round Up wasn't working because of the lack of sunshine and the cooler weather, so.... we recycled! |
| Zang | posted 19-Jun-2007 1:15pm I have a "driveway or yard"?! |
| SueBee | (reply to cabinfever) posted 19-Jun-2007 8:19pm |
| cabinfever | (reply to SueBee) posted 21-Jun-2007 12:30am Not shag... but it was this nauseating, awful yellow-green color, done in a wool sculptured berber-type. It is so ugly we turned it face down. The brown backing actually kind of blends in a little. |
| SueBee | (reply to cabinfever) posted 21-Jun-2007 12:53am |
| cabinfever | (reply to SueBee) posted 21-Jun-2007 1:01am Works great... but the carpet tends to bump up a bit, so after a week or two you have to watch your step. I was out straightening it (or trying to) and I looked under it... the weeds are completely gone. No carcasses, just dirt. I'm impressed... we had quite a dandelion problem cropping up. |
| Enigma | posted 29-Jun-2007 9:12pm No I've never had to do this. We used to have huge family reunions at my Uncles farm and everyone parked on the lawn of course. But it was a huge lawn being a farm. |
