So..... why don’t YOU move YOUR table to another spot?

You can move your table and umbrella. They can’t exactly move their pergola

in all fairness cigs stink and spread far. every home in my hood has about an acre or less and I can smell when two different neighbors are out smoking in the mornings. one guy is across the street and down a house

Maybe just move your table if you don't want to even try and talk to them.

I bet they get close to the fence so they aren't stinking up their pergola area or letting smoke in their own house, which is kind of funny in this situation.

If they are constantly smoking like you said, they will be dead in a couple years just wait it out.

Talk to them. Tell them you have lymphoma, palsy, and AIDS and need oxygen but you like to go outside sometimes for fresh air.

Poor man,
Who live on tiny lot,
Must get use,
To breathing neighbors farts

you should be on Live PD. Those cops smell weed from a car on the other side of the boulevard. Its uncanny.

but to your point, are you a bitch about and go whining to them b/c you smell smoke? If so, you should invest in a patio fan so the smoke smell doesn't just sit.

Start smoking as well, so you will get used to the smell

And just so people really understand... if they just smoked every-now-and-then, it wouldn't be a big deal.

But it's all. day. long.

I can't go outside in my backyard without smelling cigarette smoke like they're standing right next to me. It's like they're tag-teaming chain-smokers.

I hate smoke andnthat would piss me off too. But unfortunately there is nothing you can do. Like others have said maybe try a nice conversation with them. That’s kind of awkward thing to do but worth a shot. Worst thing they can do is say no. You have nothing to lose by asking and may gain something in return.

Or like someone mentioned get a pretty good powered box fan. One with wheels. Every time they light up roll it out and blow it back their way. Wind will overpower smoke every time. And you get added benefit of having box fan for parties and other situations where you want to use it.
