Walter and I were visiting a couple that we met in Alaska, Tom and Jonni.  But instead of them being in Alaska, they were in upstate New York.  Walter had never been there before (in the dream) and I was excited that he was going to finally meet everyone and see what a beautiful place they had.  My mother-in-law had been living with them, so when we arrived she ran out to greet us.  We went into the house and Tom and another guy were just coming in from work.  We said, "Surprise!" and he just looked at us funny, as if he had more important things to do.  He didn't look like Tom, either, he looked more like someone I've seen on tv (but can't place) and he was wearing a business suit (so was the other guy).   I don't remember specifically seeing Jonni, but she was there somewhere.
    In another part of the dream I was in a small car in the back seat (with Walter?) and my sister was driving.  She stopped in the middle of the road, right at the bottom of this hill.  Traditionally, people came screaming over the hill at fast speeds, so I was concerned that someone would hit us.  I thought she was only stopping for a second, but she had something in her lap that she was doing (like balancing her checkbook???!) and she was looking down and very entranced with what she was doing.  Finally I said, "Christi, MOVE!  MOVE!  There's cars coming, they're gonna hit us if we don't MOVE!" She dropped what she was doing and started driving again.  The scenery of the countryside that we were in was absolutely beautiful.  It was autumn and the trees were all gorgeous colors.  I asked someone, "This looks like Pennsylvania....or is it New York?" and someone (Walter?) said, "New York".  Maybe we were driving to Tom and Jonni's.
    In still another part of the dream, Walter had checked into this hotel (in New York?) and I went in later looking for him.  I wandered around in what I supposed was the lobby, but I didn't see him anywhere.  There were tall plate glass windows at the back, and they looked out onto the back lawn, where there was a kiddie pool (or a jacuzzi, I'm not sure which).  I followed the wall of windows back down a hallway, and saw a normal-sized swimming pool further back on the property, outside the windows.  I turned a corner and went back into a room (a driver's lounge?) where a bunch of guys (truckers?) were sitting around smoking and watching tv (it was apparently the only place in the building that you could smoke...everyone was furiously puffing).  I looked around the room for Walter but I still didn't see him.  The windows in the room looked out onto the very back of the property, which had this humongous swimming pool, bigger than an Olympic-sized one.  I was about to choke with all of the smoke, so I went back out to try to find a front desk.  I came across a restaurant in the hotel, and a gift shop, then I finally saw a small counter.  I went up to this blonde woman standing at the counter and told her I wanted to find out what room my husband had checked into.  Instead of asking me his name and looking him up in the computer, she instead took the almost empty bottle of Sprite out of my hands and put it in a freezer that was right next to the counter.  I told her I wanted to find my husband, but she just ignored my requests.  She made me sit down at the table that all of a sudden appeared out of nowhere in front of me.  She handed me a plate with a piece of cake on it.  The cake had fallen apart into many pieces.  I didn't really want the cake, although it looked really good.  Then she handed me another plate with a huge dinner roll on it.  She pulled my Sprite back out of the freezer, and looked apologetic that the little that was left in the bottle was now frozen.  I kept insisting, "Can you just tell me what room my husband is in???" but she never said anything and seemed uninterested in doing anything other than serving me food.    Then I was in a bar, where Walter was sitting, except he was Tom Cruise.  I went over to him and we started to play out what was supposedly a scene from a Tom Cruise movie.  I was supposed to be Meg Ryan.  I walked seductively over to him and crawled on top of his lap.  I started kissing him passionately and intensely, and he had his hands all over me.  Then a big bar brawl started because of a bunch of bikers that were there in the place.  This one biker dude got Walter (who was no longer Tom Cruise) down on the floor and had this razor blade and started cutting small lines on Walter's back.  I begged the guy not to do it, but he did it anyway, and looked very pleased that he had done it.  It didn't seem to hurt Walter very badly (although it killed me watching it), so the biker guy got up and started slashing other people, and then would stop to slash his own arms.  He looked at me and I said, "No, please, please, please don't do that to me!" and unbelievably he didn't.
    Then I was walking around this mall, looking in stores.  I remember looking at clothes in a particular store, I think I was looking at coats or something.  The mall was huge and spacious, with lots and lots of stores.
