Most people who hear the word “vacation” turn their thoughts to islands in the sun, mountain retreats or relaxing weeks at the shore. But a vacation at home can be just as pleasantly spent and can provide a break in your normal routine and offer new insights into your life. With a little imagination, you can come up with a variety of activities to keep you occupied and entertained. Plan an entire day of bicycling, for example. Work out an itinerary for the day and a picnic lunch. Find summer's freshest fruits and make old-fashion-ed ice cream in a handcranked freezer. Turn the blueberries and raspberries you’ve found in the woods into toppings for the ice cream. Do something you've been wanting to do for a long time. You might seek out riding stables in your area and sign up for lessons. Take a nature walk and carefully observe the local birds or flowers in the woods nearby your home. Visit your local museum or historical society — the one you’ve been meaning to visit for years — and find out about the background of your area. You may be surprised at some of your discoveries!

I love the night life

By CARLA EASTLVND There you are, lying on the beach in Hawaii and up walks the most gorgeous guy (or girl) that you’ve ever seen. He (or she) sits down beside you and starts up a conversation, and then . brrring, there goes your alarm clock, waking you up in the middle of another fantastic dream. What is a dream? According to “Webster’s Intermediate Dictionary,” a dream is a series of thoughts, images, or emotions occurring during sleep. Now that we know what a dream is, what do they tell us about ourselves? According to the article “What Your Dreams Tell About You” from the June 6, 1971, issue of “Family Weekly,” the following are some facts about dreams: 1. Many people lead a more) interesting life asleep thajh awake. It’s not uncommon/for people to have more exciting, romantic, and adventurous experiences in dreams in waking hours — which may be one reason why people with dull lives tend to sleep more. 2. Dreaming in color indicates that you are living more fully and getting more out of life. Dreams in color indicate that the person has a heightened sensitivity to things around him. or a more satisfying emotional life. With women, dreaming in color is associated with intuitive ability 3. People who have difficulty adjusting to problems of everyday life cannot escape from reality in their dreams In most cases, people that avoid facing reality in their waking life are brought face-to-face with it in their dreams. 4. There are ways to make your dream life more interesting If you drink no fluids an hour or two before going to bed your dreams will be more numerous and varied. Another way to step up dreaming activity is to stop smoking. 5. Remembering your dreams doesn’t mean you have a fine memory. You can remember your dreams and yet be extremely forgetful during your waking life. People who best recall their dreams average the highest scores on creativity tests, are more conscious of their inner feelings and anxieties. People who seldom remember dreams tend to repress their feelings and are inclined to be inhibited emotionally. 6. Some people, do their best thinking while asleep. Dreams are just one phase of the brain's activity which takes place when were asleep. Frequently a person will wake up with the answer to a problem which baffled him before he went to sleep. Much research has been done on dreams. “Sleep and Dreams,” a book by Dr. Alvin Silverstein and Virginia B Silverstein has shown many different conclusions after studying people's dreams in a laboratory. According to the book, one study has revealed that people normally dream as many as four or five or even six separate times

each night, whether the dreamer remembers it or not -Sleep researchers have also found that people generally dream in color allthetirge. The book went on to say. that dreams have been reported since the beginnings of recorded history, and indeed, studies of animals suggest that the first apelike ancestors of man undoubtedly dreamed, too. Another book, “Some Must Watch While Some Must Sleep” by William C. Dement, said that dreaming may begin long before the child has the verbal ability to even describe the dream. So, as you can see, a person begins dreaming very early in life, almost from the beginning right up to the very end. This raises two interesting questions: What kinds of settings do dreams occur in, and what factors, if any, affect dreams? According to the book “Sleep and Dreams," Calvin Hall, at the Dream Research Institute of Miami, Fla . has been compiling a sort of dream catalogue Analyzing the records of more than thirty thousand dream narrations. Hall’s group is trying to determine the general types of dream content that are typical of various groups of people normal college students, the aged, people with various physical ailments, and people of different ethnic groups It is found that most dreams occur in familiar settings —a third in houses: a quarter on means tot transportation, such as trains, cars, and planes: a 10th in social situations; a 10th out of doors, and so forth Family members and friends are often dream characters; sometimes a person who has not been seen for many years may figure in a dream: other dream characters seem to be unknown to the dreamer However, Freud followers would say that these are really familiar persons in disguise, because their true identity might cause feelings of guilt or anxiety to the sleeper The book, "Sleep and Dreams” also stated that things that happen to you while you’re sleeping, can influence what you dream about The sleeping brain can tune out sounds that it doesn’t consider important while still remaining alert to certain key stimuli. An example of this acting stimuli would be the following excerpt from the book “Some Must Watch While Some Must Sleep.” Three subjects on five occasions completely restricted their intake of fluids for twentyfour hours or longer before sleeping in the laboratory.

each occasion the subjects reported that they were extremely thirsty when they went to bed, and twice the thirst had reached the point at which the subject had dry lips and was unable to salivate Fifteen dream narratives were obtained under these conditions and in no case did the dream content involve an awareness of thirst or descriptions of actual drinking. Five of the dreams, however, contained elements that seemed clearly related to the theme of thirst and drinking: 1. “1 was in bed and was being experimented on. 1 was supposed to have a malabsorption syn drome." 2. “I started to heat a great big skillet of milk. 1 put almost a quart of milk in ” 3. “Just as the bell went off. somebody raised a glass and said something about a toast. 1 don't think 1 had a glass. ” 4. “While watching T\ I saw a commercial Two kids were asking what they wanted to drink and’ one kid started yelling.
