While this activity would typically be deemed inappropriate where I currently reside, I make the effort to do this in the wee hours of the morning when I’m least likely to be seen and the
land is damp with dew. There is an open grassy area with propagated **willow trees** behind the home we’re living in. I’ve gotten in the habit of relieving myself right after waking up when I let my dogs out to do the same. I see a variety of benefits from this practice:
- The willows and nearby grass get fertilized/watered.
- I benefit from the fresh air, morning sunlight, and optic flow.
- No toilet needs flushed, which reduces water usage and ensures the noise of flushing doesn’t wake the rest of my family.
- I’m already letting my dogs outside, so the habit is easy to maintain.
