   (Note:  putting a copyright on the 4th release of the book I've been editing.)   
   In one dream, the dreamer is in a boat, similar to a 14 to 16 footer where the   
   left and right seats in the cabin stretch out into left & right (port and   
   starboard) beds.  The craft seems to be simply afloat in calm water, and the   
   wind (?) is gently    
   blowing the boat in a counter-clockwise circle, when the boat apparently   
   points relatively north.  This is, of course, relative as to whether the dream   
   scene is indicative of real life, with the sun arcing across the south as it   
   travels from east to west.   
     The point is that the dreamer was reclining on the starboard couch on his   
   (?) back when the boat pivoted to the north.  This aimed the dreamer's face   
   southward as the boat pivoted, bringing the sun right across the dreamer's   
   field of vision (from left    
   to right.)   
      
   I do not recall at this time ever having a dream wherein the sun was passively   
   viewed in such a manner.  In fact, I can't recall ever having looked at the   
   sun before in a dream anywhere.  At any rate, the pivoting of the boat   
   resulted in the boat    
   continuing around in a counter-clockwise direction, such that the view of the   
   sun (relative to the boat) exited rightward on across, but the moment of   
   sunlight was so bright as to awaken the dreamer (me) momentarily.  Clarity   
   9+++ for certain.   
      
   There was another much smaller dream (later, not directly connected with the   
   view of the sun) involving the floating dock scenario out on a lake.  Can't   
   recall any of it other than it was there, clarity 2 or 3.   
      
      
   In another land-based dream, the dreamer was (as if) walking north along   
   US-231 N, starting from near the intersection of Clark Blvd, on the right   
   (east) side of the street.  What was clearly the point of this dream was that   
   the land was plowed / graded    
   to smooth dirt.  LOTS and LOTS of space of just dirt.  The dreamer was   
   contemplating just how beautiful the dirt / ground itself actually *is*— how   
   the dirt can support building / development, or crops, or homes, etc.    
   Anything.  The level dirt was    
   simply wonderful. At the second "lot" (on the right) the dreamer seemed to be   
   walking up along a bulldozed path, wondering what had existed in this space   
   PRIOR to the leveling of the ground.  There was some small amount of detritus   
   in the soil, as if    
   plumbing and / or wiring had been bulldozed under.  The ground itself around   
   this area seemed more "hardened," as if it had been used for a driveway for   
   construction pickup trucks, etc., creating an almost driveway-like path.  The   
   "end" of this path was    
   marked by a large rock, maybe 3' high, about the shape of an egg, buried   
   halfway in the ground.  The dreamer had the impression that a bulldozer had   
   simply pushed that rock as far back as was necessary (out of the way) and just   
   left it there.   
      
   In another dream, the dreamer is *viewing* a young female (under 25, but   
   likely at least 18 on up, with that "new young adult" kinda vibe) with a   
   tomboy-like figure and certainly with some outdoor athletic ability, as she   
   appears to be working her way    
   down a double-wall rope grid.  Now just a bit on this dream:  I HEARD IT   
   audibly, words ALONE, briefly, THEN saw the visual action *accompany* the SAME   
   audio sequence.  The words were something like "this side, weird side, this   
   side, weird side, this    
   side, weird side...."  (could've been the words "odd side, weird side", or   
   even "left side, weird side."  Mind you, the dreamer's perspective was VIEWING   
   the gal as she descended the rope walls.  So the *camera-left* side would have   
   been *her* RIGHT side,   
    which was made of a roughly square-shaped rope grid.  Every time she was   
   refering to (either "this" or "odd" or "left", let's just say "x-side") she   
   was referring to the squarish grid on HER right.  Everytime she referred to   
   the "weird side," she was    
   referring to the irregular (triangular?) shaped ropegrid on her left.    
   Regardless, she was using both sides to lower herself down from what must've   
   been a very high perch originally (like at least 2 or 3 stories up, maybe   
   higher?)  WHY she didn't just    
   climb down on ONE side of a rope wall is unknown.  WHY this was *heard* BEFORE   
   it was heard AND seen is unknown.  The dreamer ended up with a camera view   
   from BELOW the female, viewing up AT the female.  There was some question in   
   mind as to whether or    
   not this was some kind of rite of passage (or not.)  There was a question in   
   mind as to why this action was being performed without some kind of safety   
   harness or such.  But upon reflection, it seems unworkable to have a hook at   
   the top of a safety    
   harness if the objective is to get to a lower location, but I CAN see how this   
   would work from a waking point of view:  always keep the hook attached BELOW   
   waist level, with the safety end attached to the climber's waist.  Then every   
   time the climber    
   gets to the hook, re-locate it at the next lower point.  But that WOULD be   
   cumbersome, and all one would really need do in case of a slip would be to   
   reach out and grab either side of the rope wall.  Was this the dream of the   
   conscious process of a    
   spider weaving a web?  Perhaps not the weaving portion, but it certainly would   
   count for movement across a web.  Except why the two sides?  And no spider I   
   know of weaves a square-grid web.  They're always a circular orb pattern.    
   Note that the rope    
   segments on the left (camera right) DID appear irregularly triangular.    
   Clarity 7.   
      
   In this other dream, the dreamer seemed concerned about a record player that   
   is left running across the street in (what would be in real life) the   
   neighbor's driveway area, apparently under a sheet of some kind.  The dreamer   
   uncovered the record player    
   and found it spinning at about 78 RPM (or possibly 45 RPM for a 33 LP.    
   Regardless, it had that chipmunk sound to it.  This dream seemed unresolved as   
   well as unexplained, easily clarity 5 for those reasons.
