I entered this dream totally lucid after doing a WBTB (Wake Back to Bed). This lucid was very long, involved several scenes, and I travelled across the country. There were also a couple strange things that happened, both of which were new experiences. The dream started off in a small lottery ticket/smokes/video store.

A young man in his early 20’s was standing in front. He had short, dark hair, and a tattoo coming up the left side of his neck from under his T-shirt. First, I asked him his name, and he replied, but his name was a bit odd, so I asked him again, and he told me (I forgot his name by the time I journaled this). I then asked where he lives, and he said my city’s name! Finally, a dream figure that’s from my city! I was going to next ask his last name, but then an invisible dream figure grabbed onto me and pulled me backwards right through the store’s wall. There was somebody holding me around my stomach, from the back! I wasn’t struggling at, and I simply let the strange force take me. It was kind of nice having somebody else do all the work. I was going backwards down one of the main streets, I knew exactly where I was, and I recognized most of the buildings. We went faster and faster until everything was a blur, and then we ended up in a forested area. We had slowed down, but I was still facing backwards, and was beginning to wonder where we were. That’s when we approached a large mountain range.

I pointed to the top of a mountain, and I told the invisible dream figure, “Take me up there!” It was all snowy and looked very scenic. We went part way up the mountain, but then the dream figure seemed to run out of steam, and then we headed back down the mountain into a rocky valley. This time I was facing forward, which was nice for a change. We then came upon a rocky, barren area, and then the dream figure let go of me, and I was standing all alone in the middle of nowhere. Huge rocks started avalanching down the mountain towards me. I thought great, time for fun! I shot across the ground right at the avalanche and I let the rocks hit me. The bigger the better! I kept jumping in front to the biggest rocks, only to have them bounce off me. There this big rectangular rock sliding down the slope, about the size of a king size mattress, so I grabbed onto it with one hand and smashed it over my head. I’m not really too sure why I did that, but anyway, it was all fun. Then the invisible dream figure came back and grabbed me once again, and we flew further down the valley into a forested area.

I recognize this place! It’s Jasper! We flew right through the wall of a building, and then the invisible dream figure placed me in a stairwell with approximately 10 people. I had gone a long time without stabilizing, and my vision was starting to go black, so I started to swirl. I swirled and swirled, and then the clarity came back perfectly, except now I was standing outside the stairwell looking in at the group. There was no doorway, only windows, and I hadn’t considered trying to pass through the wall to rejoin the group. I watched the people walk up the stairs, and I simply floated upwards, outside the stairwell, in an effort to stay close to them. When we got to the top floor, there was only a metal screen along the ceiling separating us, so I passed right through it, and rejoined the group. We then proceeded to walk down the hallway of an elementary school.

There were young kids everywhere. As I walked past one class I heard somebody mention my daughter’s name, so I spun around and went into the classroom. I remembered my mantra during WBTB which was to visit with my daughter, and I thought maybe she was here. There were about 20 kids sitting on the floor, and a teacher was standing off to the side. I introduced myself to the kids and then I asked them who said my daughter’s name. I recognized one of the kids, so I asked him if he said my daughter’s name, and he replied, “No, I didn’t say her name?” Just then a little tiny dog ran into the classroom, and it was only about 4 inches long. It looked up at me and started to bark! I reached down and picked up the dog and said, “Well, hello there cute little doggy!” Suddenly all the kids around me started to disappear and fall to pieces. Now what's going on? The little dog in my hand started to morph into something different (like a little wiener with eyes). I found this all a bit too alarming and then I woke up. This dream was very cool and I enjoyed it immensely!
