Afternoon with Augie

Twenty minutes of sniffing is the perfect amount. Not a tad more or a tad less. Too much and you get wound up. Too little and you are antsy. Less is more. Too much of a good thing. Everything in moderation. On tonight’s evening constitutional walk - always walk after eating, it’s good for glucose control - some sand bars protruded from the rocky beach, so I safely closed my eyes, as I imagined Augie, and sniffed. And then I couldn’t remember - if Augie had said twenty minutes or twenty seconds. I didn’t want to overdo it. But twenty was the perfect amount.
