Wow, you know what, I just remembered! I had one dream featuring tikis about three weeks ago, and I'd forgotten it, but I did have one.

And it was a doozy too. I was traveling with a friend, but I don't remember who it was, I was just "with somebody." And we were visiting a neighborhood somewhere in California that had been built in the late 50's. The whole area was full of googie apartments. And here and there were these cement tikis. Didn't see any carved wooden ones, but the cement tikis were hollow.

Near the end of the dream we were walking down a residential street that had this fiberglass patio kind of ceiling going over the whole street, so it was heavily shaded in a translucent way. And in the center of the street (a wide street) was one of those cement divider "islands" (appropriate I guess), and this thing had tropical plants on it and some large cylindrical cement tikis. I mean really large, they were like ten feet tall at least. Probably a little taller.

Someone in the dream commented that the neighborhood was like a time capsule, so well preserved. And I appreciated the cement tikis because they looked nice and were in good shape. That's all I can remember. But it was very vivid, and the neighborhood was really very beautiful. Trust me, it was.
