I have decided to move things from here to Substack, where the posts can now be found at  The Silver Key  . Substack's system made importing all of my previous posts very easy for me. Things could be edited. Not all of the spaces and line breaks are there. I'm not likely to go in and edit all those little details, though, because it's still easily readable and I'm glad I didn't have to copy and paste text, upload pictures again, and change the dates on things.

I'm also noticing a pattern in where dreams take place. Places in my dreams repeat. Some are clearly based on places I have known in the waking world, and some I only know in the dreamworld. Dreams will happen in the same place for a few nights, then I'll have a night or two of very fuzzy dreams that I don't remember well, then I'll be in a different place. A few nights ago, I was dreaming of being in some kind of fishing village. It was a very clear, detailed dream. There were piers and walkways, but streets were pretty much replaced with creeks, narrow rivers, and canals. The town sat at the edge of a big port. Statu
