   The dreamer was *as if* driving along an interstate (or roadway) when it   
   appeared a male "disappeared" in a *blip* of light, but as if going *through*   
   a specific, curtained area.  The general area looked to be a small cubicle   
   (maybe 4'x4', up to perhaps    
   6'x6', *possibly* rectangular, being higher than wide, like 6'x4'x4') that   
   "shimmered" *just a bit* in comparison with the area around it.  This was   
   like, "what IF" society had developed a kind of "layer" of existence (a work   
   layer, possibly a "home"    
   layer, who knows?) *above* the normal "ground level" of modern society?  Not   
   like multi-story buildings / skyscrapers, but more like a "layer of existence   
   (work/leisure/home) *above* ground level:  The rectangular "shimmer" into   
   which the person had    
   disappeared "looked" like what would've been seen in the surrounding area, as   
   if the sides of whatever he'd disappeared into was covered by an exterior   
   layer of high-resolution screen, such that it projected exactly what was 180°   
   behind it (no matter    
   from which direction it was looked at.)  That the "shimmering box" appeared to   
   be in the air, somewhat up a pole, gave the dreamer the impression that the   
   guy was working on a power pole fixture, much as we would normally see   
   transformers and other    
   fixtures on poles in today's world, only "invisible" / shielded,   
   aesthetically.  Clarity 8, nearly 9, *despite* the "invisibility shimmer"   
   factor.   
      
   The other dream of note involved what appeared to be a person wearing a bird /   
   pigeon outfit, visible from the waist up, peering downward (much like a pigeon   
   on a power line or tree branch) with what also seemed to be a small briefcase,   
   and the dreamer    
   couldn't *quite* determine what the purpose of the tan/brown object was for.    
   The "person in a pigeon suit" was looking toward the dreamer's perspective as   
   if juxtaposed above / behind the briefcase / object.  Clarity 6 to 7.   
      
   There were other dreams but they seem to be more congealed into sludge than   
   "evaporated"— having something to do with a stream, upstream, downstream, a   
   building IN the stream, almost like a cross between a brewery and a machine   
   shop / wood shop that    
   was "out of business" or had lain dormant for some time.  Clarity 7 to 8,   
   easily, at the time, but down to 3 now.
