Dream
I'm on a trip for work, heading to a conference or summit, or perhaps just on my way to work, I'm not sure. I'm driving a car; a boxy older car, like a 1970's Cadeliac or a 1980's Mercury Sable. Comfortable but tough. I'm following two other vehicles. The incline starts to get pretty steep, then before I know it, I'm driving up the side of a mountain. The wheels spinning, trying desperately to grip the rock and gravel beneath. I exit the vehicle and continue the hike on foot. I am wearing a large ruck sack. We finally reach the top, the literal summit, but all I see there is some wooden sheds and some kind of water purification unit. I have to pee, and open a couple of the wooden doors looking for a toilet, they don't go anywhere or lead to anything. One shows the pump equipment and the other just seems to lead to a rock wall.
I find a large open urinal area for the men. It's more like a horse trough or pen, the four large metal urinals forming a rectangle. I go pee in the sight of the others, one of the other guys doing the same on the opposite side of me.
Suddenly I'm in a restaurant. I am sitting next to an Asian man dressed in nice business clothes. He asks if I have any hand sanitizer, I say yeah I think I have some in here somewhere, motioning towards my Ruck sack. I open a pocket and retrieve a small bottle of hand sanitizer and use some and offer it to my colleague, who is very grateful.
