I am standing by a huge down tree and trying to start a fire on the end of it. Someone goes to get something, and it is almost catching. I keep fanning it. It is now bright orange.
I am going a second time for a hike in a canyon. The rive is filled with snow, which is melting quickly. I am going up canyon. I come to a pond, where walking is no longer possible. I get onto a block of snow, and ride it down the stream to a landing. I get off onto the shore, and the block of snow melts. Two climbers are coming down carrying women who appear to be sleeping (dead?) I ask if they need help, but they do not answer. I decide to go only a short ways, because it looks like rain will start soon. An old man is there, who I think is 62 years old, but he's really 66. He is applying to be a guard in Naumberg, germany. We come upon a lodge. The lodge has a gift shop and a restaurant. We ascend seven levels of stairs in the lodge to look from an observation deck.

Im on a field trip with high school. We go to a research area where animals are sutdied for what they can reveal to humans. It is a swampy area, and a pineapple (green) floats in the swamp. We go back to the high school and get there in the middle of classes. I try to find a class, but go too far down the stairs and get off at the wrong floor.

I decide to go to Peru. I arrive in a bustling port city and a strong feeling of being lost and helpless comes over. There is an island, out in the harbor with steep cliffs.

I am at a wedding of a friend. with family. It involved flying. It is in mid afternoon, and I need a "warm" colored shirt to wear. I decide to wear a red one. I go to the ___ Peaks to take photos. Just south of Mount ___, on the West side, there are wild tomatoes.

I am on a trip, looking for a spot to go backcountry skiing. We have to walk over a deck, where a cow os lying down. It gets up as we pass and it becomes a man who is hobbling around. He asks me to pull his knee, which is injured, in order that he may go sailing again soon. We end up making dinner there, and we hear there is little snow where we had wanted to go. One area is dangerous, with someone and a gun.
A conflict, something about work. We are vindicated

Im in a house, looking at it to see if it would be a good rental. I follow some locals aroind to a pizza place, after deciding not to see a movie with five parts, the last part about making movies. The pizza place is very popular, and the pizza is really good. There are many young and good-looking people there. Then we are driving southwest to Israel. In the mountains. We went to a shop in a muslim village inside Israel.

Im on a tour of my grandmother's previous house, and we're in the garden. There are lots of berry plants. There are two blueberry plants, remnant from her father who was a blueberry farmer in his later years. It is revealed that he also used to raise sheep and mushrooms...I decide to travel. I am at the airport ticket counter, and apparently I am on my way to "The Middle East". I have my old yellow cell phone, and I am advised to leave it with a friend. I don't really know exactly where I'm going, it's somewhere near Afganistan. I realize it will be very hostile. I'll probably go to Israel and Petra..

I am looking for my green bike for a long time after returning from vacation. It turns out it is at a shop, which is run by a little asian guy who is also a climber, where I had locked it. I give him a good tip. Pieces of the gear system are missing, though. I decide to bike to the summer camp I went to as a young boy near my house. When I get there, there is a mini-soccer game going on. They are using a very small ball the size of a tennis ball. They want me in as goalie. I do well and my team wins.

I'm on some sort of a group trip. It's raining. I take off my socks to run back to get something. I pass some rude kids and their very tall teacher. They speak broken spanish, and I unlock the door for them in the direction they are going.
I am looking at a map of the carribean, there is an island with wilderness to sail to. Sailing around the carribean sounds like a good idea.

I am in architecture studio, not trying very much. I missed class and directions about how to present the model. I am using an old foam core house I had made a few years back. There is an evening presentation, which I miss, and have to make it up later on. The blond architect who is presenting saves the mood with his open nature. When I am headed in next time, I go through a park where garbage has been dumped out and then sealed in containers. I avoid the high bridge and take a lower one. A group of about 15 complete strangers come running past in a sprinting race. times. I shove some of them off with an elbow. I see them finish with no clear winner or anyone who cares who won. Some are breathing harder than others. We are at a strange building in the park by the river.

I am travelling, going to a tennis camp where there is an old guy wearing a t-shirt saying "grandad". I am going to see a volleyball league with my younger cousin in it. All forty of them are sitting in chairs facing the same way and bounce a yellow balloon over the net. It is hot and we are about to get the ferry again to croatia. She gets up to give me a hug goodbye, and recommends a grocery store for buying beer to bring on the 9-hour ferry ride.

Travelling the Oregon coast - there is an amazing beach and it is a very remote wilderness. Bright stars and the moon dominate the sky view. There is a guy mooring a boat in the water and his black dog with a giant head swims over to me. The man is lucky to be sailing but doesn't know it.

In the home where I grew up, with my dog and another puppy playing in the back yard. An ex-girlfriend decides to come over- she tells her dad in Michigan to come immediately for the weekend. She is now a real stripper and seems taller and has a trailerpark-ish air about her.

I am at a friends (who live in my city) house for dinner, but its really the patio in the house I grew up in somewhere else. He has new skis with white bindings and especially deep orange titanium chairs.
I had planned to go to Europe, but I have a sinking feeling realizing that I really hadn't planned and hadn't even bought a ticket. I feel stuck.

I am perfecting architecture with a class. I go to gymnastics and am able to do backflips. I am going to a concert with drumsticks, but it's not a concert I'm playing in. A woman I know well shows up and sits on the other side. I am driving through a tunnel, guiding her...
