Another subdream

: I am in a car, passenger. We are driving in the Fort Collins that doesn't really exist. We are north on "College Avenue." It is snowing, cold. We drive north, out of town. There are hills, but it is very much unlike arid northern Colorado. There are several outcomes:

:::: Sometimes we get caught up in an area around where the Aartvark used to be, yet at the same time it's like the Ridgeway area (around Visions on East Wash) in Madison. Old, run down houses, commercial properties that haven't been updated for 30 or so years. Ugly, seedy strip. We're looking for a restaurant or a place to stay, as if we're from out of town.

:::: Sometimes we keep driving north. The road is hilly, we go up and down and sweep from side to side. There is a lake by the road where people are stopped, with perhaps a convenience store or restaurant. We get pull over and stop.

:::: Sometimes we keep driving all the way up the Poudre until we get to the end of the line until we can go no more due to snowed-in roads. I know IRL I have been this far, nearly up to Walden. Bill was with us, and Colorado 14 was closed due to snow. Somehow the name "Walden" gets mixed up in my mind. I think of Walden Pond, which my dad has mentioned, in Massachusetts. I don't think I have ever been there, but there is this one image from Massachusetts that has stuck in my head. It is this strange structure, a brick obelisk that was built near either a pond, lake or the ocean. It was a reocurring motif in my dreams from many years ago. I think it was near a town called Brockton, but I am not sure. In my recent subdream, we get out of the car. It is reminiscent of the Brockton obelisk dream...there are lots of people and it is winter. We walk toward a park by a lake...lots of people all walking the same direction. It slowly gets warmer until the ground is muddy and full of life like frogs and tadpoles in the water. I think this is a dream about dying.

It does seem like a dream about dieing, but in the version with frogs there is an imagery of spring. As though one version includes a rebirth or continuation of the cycles part. Frogs are very beautiful animals.

No, that IS the dying version. It is cold, winter. Winter stands for death. I am walking with a bunch of other people. They are dead. I am dead. We have all recently died and are leaving the cold place. The fact that it starts to get warmer and the snow disappears means we are entering the great beyond, as it were.

Thank you, and that makes sense.
