JB and Biker Raj peered out the outer door of the Buckhorn Saloon. What was that on the ground just outside the fence?

It was! ....It was a big pile of dog poop!
"AAAAAAAAGGHHHHH!!" They both cried at the top of their lungs.
Vicki tapped them on their shoulders, causing them to jump.
"Stop being so prissy," she said. "It's only dog poop."
"Besides," she noted, "you can—literally—just turn around to see something different and beautiful."
They turned around to see the outer door leading to the Buckhorn. "It is beautiful," they agreed.
"So focus your attention on that," she advised.
"Of course, you still have to clean up the poop," she added, handing them a shovel.
