Few dreams while I was sleeping on the floor this morning...
In the first dream, there was this bike trail that I really liked (It was the dream equivalent of the Capital City trail - it went in a loop around the city), and went biking on it alot. Somewhere about half way between the ends it crossed some RR tracks and there was a parking lot there. It was actually ot in the country, or at least on the outskirts of a small town, and there was a lot of tall grass there, I think. Anyway, we (some friends or Mom and her friends abd I or something like that) were going to go camping somewhere around there, so we were on our bikes (in the dark) riding around there. We had a radio or something, and we were thinking we should turn it and our lights off so the people in charge of the trail wouln't catch us. I don't know exactly when they did, but I think they did sometime. I had taken my bike back up the hill for some reason, and all the grass was catching fire. I tried to put it out with the water from my water bottle, and I did manage to contain it (at one end). On both sides of the trail (which was grass with bare patches) was some tall grass, and on one side there were trees. The fire didn't get of the path, for some reason. It might have been when I got back to our camp that the baddies caught us. They were saying something about if we hadn't had our radio on they wouldn't have found us.

I had another dream in which I was playing a Duke Nukem game, except that it was really nothing like Duke Nukem at all (not a bang-bang type game). Actually I think it started out being a race, and we were racing cars through a dark forest at the bottom of a canyon. I eventually was just wandering around. At one point, I went through a big maze in some high-tech building, and then took a spaceship or something to another planet. I was wandering around there, and worked my way east through this big dusty canyon , and came out through a notch in a cliff wall, which let me out into a large open area with a forest (but that was below me, I was still up a cliff wall). I could climb down (it wasn't very far - the tops of the trees had been above me the whole time) to a pretty tile floor, which, as it spread away (especially toward the forest), it became covered with moss and vines. I went into the forest, walked south, and eventually came to a place I thought had been before. I walked west, and sure enough, I was at the top of a cliff which led down to the west to the entrance of the big fancy high-tech space port (I had come a different way before). There was a funny tree there at the edge of the forest at the top of that cliff that had a vine hanging out of it which looked like it had been tied in a knot by a monkey. I was thinking, "Hey! I can't be back here! After I went through the spaceport I was on another planet. I didn't come back to earth, but here I am anyway! They must have done some Half-Life style teleport-between levels tricks."

The Forest Maze is at a higher elevation than the entrance to the Space Port Building, though around the south side there is a way to get up to the forest maze (that's how I got up there the first time)
A while ago, (I don't think I wrote this down then, so I am now), I had a dream in the middle of the day that I was playing baseball for school or something. However, the diamond was REALLY big. So big, that you couln't see to the next base without binoculars. Except for the lanes between bases and an area from home to 2nd which included the pitchers mound, there was a dense forest everywhere. When it was my turn to bat, I ran the wrong way. I got to 3rd, then someone hit the ball (it was hard to tell), and I ran to 2nd, where I met Byrns and talked to her about how it sucked that you coulnd't tell when ther ball got hitted. That might have been right after I had a dream in which there was this big world, and it was all water except for some building which stuck up, and it was like a long game and I was trying to find my way out. It involved going through the buildings (the last one was big, dark, and had no interior walls or floors (just catwalks and big pipes), and I think I had taken part in designing it. Then there was something about me flying around in this little flying vehicle, looking down at all the water, maybe going around the world (it was a taurus), and flying way up high, maybe above the clouds. Anyway, after that baseball dream, I went upstairs and found Shanie and Wendy watching this stupid Disney show where involving Rock stars from outer space and some stupid kids. I thought it was part of my dream for a while there.
