B&W chickens

Just an image from last night's dream:
Sandy brought home a flock of chicks, all colored in stark black and white. There was a black goose among them. Then a small dog, perhaps a Chihuahua but also colored in black and white, leapt from a shelf behind my head and ran among the chicks, causing fowl confusion.

From a hole in the ground

First, I find myself in Spain, arriving at an airport. I wander through the place, somewhat amused to see how small the building is in this old world country. The thoroughfare is crowded with people. I'm trying to get out of the airport so I can go somewhere else, but everything baffles me as I attempt to leave. Finally I get outside the building, but nothing makes sense. I walk aimlessly around the outside, unable to find a bus or taxi. Night falls and it is cold as well as dark.

Scene shifts. I'm in our backyard with Sandy. She is sitting beneath a large horizontal tree branch, which is making ominous squeaking noises. I urge her to get out from below it, which she does. Then the branch, which must be two feet or more in diameter, somehow transmogrifies into a rolled up carpet. I grab one end and pull it out like a roll of paper towels (perhaps I should say like a roll of toilet paper) until it covers the back yard. However, once spread out it begins to sink in the middle. I pull it back and there is a giant sink hole revealed beneath it. I can see torn roots and layered dirt descending down into blackness--there is no bottom to it. There's an aura of danger.

Sigh. (B)anal.
