The average of smokes per hour (about 1.5) is satisfying today so far. Not too hard either. An easier good day of success. I have kept on picking poop from the yard: two more were picked up.

I will do another look after hubby returns with more dog poop bags.

I hear the train whistling like mad down the hill and a crow caw.

I smoked 2-3 cigarettes outside today out of 11 in 7 hours.
