Dream: A Big Farmhouse

Samuel has a dream that he walks into a house that belongs to a detective, in his early thirties and his aunt. The house is very large and comfortable with porches in the front and back. There is a sewing room where his aunt is sewing a cartoon quilt and in the living room is watching a T.V. show. Than, Sanuel's alarm clock goes off.


You have to go into the attic to get to Samuels's Favorite room. On the far end there is a dusty trunk with his parent's name on the trunk. It has his dad's naval uniform and his mom's favorite hat. It has pictures from the time of their wedding until the trip before the crash. The were vacationing in Colorado to go sking. IT is his favorite room because he goes up there when he has a problem or has a flashback. There are old desks and furniture and lots of Christmas ornaments and boxes full of old stuff. There are stacks of old schoolbooks all over the place and his fathers projector with a box of old movies, that they watch on his parents birthday.
