I dreamt that some family that was having serious financial trouble was going to be staying with my parents. I still had some of my stuff over there and so I was trying to get it. One thing was a pistol and some ammo that I had stashed in a 'secret place' in the farm room. I didn't remember where the secret place was though. Ack! Finally I opened a east-facing window near the ceiling, behind which was a dark, dirt-floored crawlspace closed over by a deck, and I found my stuff there.
But then it turned out they weren't going to be staying at my parents' house proper, but this other house on Paul that they owned. There were rumors that the family had been stealing stuff, and I wanted to come up with a plan to keep an aye on them, but supposed that the across-the-street neighbors wouldn't want me installing cameras on their houses.
In a separate dream, I lived in a house that had some woods behind it. From the backyard, I could jump over a little creek to enter the woodsy area (it wasn't clear if it was part of the backyard, or of it was some park or something, which was cool). There were, like, tunnels you could walk through, made of snow? There were little alcoves in the snow with bats in them. They were very cute and I was trying to be careful not to disturb them, though I was for some reason carving away at some of the snow walls, and exposing a bunch of little cavities, which were empty. There were other people walking around on paths and through the tunnels. I was standing on a wall-lined path at a tunnel entrance with a couple of other people and I was waving at someone I knew way back near the house. It was night time and they were lit up by some yellow string lights. Maybe they couldn't see me, though. There were other lamps hanging around. It seemed like a place that would have a very plesant ambience when all the leaves and flowers came out.
