If dogs urinate while you are out on a walk in the neighborhood, they are "catching up on their correspondence". Marking (with urine) is how dogs "communicate" to other dogs in the area, since they all tend to choose the same places to urinate. A dog marking a public place with urine is it's way of "dropping it's business card" on a community "desktop" for other dogs to read. Now, in your own backyard, it could be because he can smell that he's used that area before, or just becasue that seems like a good spot to him.
