Daniel's story

Fumiko made a nice lunch. Fumiko at vails wine shop. Daniel at vails wine shop. Mike Hopkins playing some songs at the dock in coupeville. It is a rainy day.  We had wine and ice cream.  

We were lined up ready to sing the National Anthems of Norway and the United States

Cherries, curry and dancing.  I picked three big bowls of cherries from the tree.  There are more, but they are too high up in the tree.   Cherries picked  Cherries cooked 

Pictures of me and a nice follow,take earlier this year at the Portland Lindy. Exchange. I remember dancing with this woman.  She was delightful and fun to dance with. Hopefully we can dance in the future 

  Pre theater drink. What a nice way to spend a Friday evening in Seattle, learning about seattle through the lens of dancers.

I was dreaming that I was twenty years old and working an internship.   I was researching the impact of the development of the light rail on neighborhoods.  For some reason it was how the tunnel was placed in the wrong location thus Houses were impacted due to noise and construction problems. The dream research includes some cover up by local officials.  They all said it was fine but the proof is physical. This was an odd dream in that it didn't make sense when I woke up, because things like light rail locations are well planned.  It does make sense in that local officials often try to ignore mistakes.

We went to Carnation to pick strawberries.   One hour  and 16 pounds.  Next we make strawberry jam. The tree in front of our house is so green.  It was planted as a seed many years ago.  I wasn't sure if it would grow but it has done quite well over the years.

The flapper valve on America standard toilets tend to leak.  I change it out to be a not type flapper. Off to dump.  Getting rid of stuff. lunch

This is day four of our COVID 19 getaway.   We tested positive to the virus and decided to bug out for five days to who's Island.  I have been working on my camper project.  I plan on turning a pop up tent trailer into a pop up insulated hard side trailer.  It will be smaller, and lighter.  It will sleep two people, which is all we really need.  I had to repair the fiberglass top, remove the old tent.  Next step is to create the fold up sides out of Styrofoam.  It should be warmer and easier to setup and to pull.  Probably I could  pull it with our small car.   We have been drinking wine each night with dinner.  It seems like the wine helps with sleeping.  Sleeping is what we need to get better.  The connection to the world is still connected via the Internet 

For the last week the dreams I have had were very disjointed.  They involved travel but they jumped around.  Over the last week my resting heart rate was higher than usual, and my sleep was not restful.  It could be because of jetlagged condition, or because of sickness like COVID.  I woke up today and the dreams are back.  Disturbing in their own way as they are real places with sounds smells emotions and interactions with people.  They often tell a story or give me some directions.  The first dream of the night I was living in an apartment like students housing.  Other people's where coming and we were going out someplace.  I was not paying attention to the location because we always go together to the same place.  Walk out take a train.  I left just before the others. I was walking along the tram line to the station when I try to cross the road.  I guess u didn't make it.  I lost them but I was then at a ferry dock with...
