Dear John and Doves:

One afternoon, 7-8 weeks ago, I had been busy all day.  I wanted to take a shower before starting dinner, but I was very tired (not much sleep the night before).  Instead, I decided to take a nap first as I still had a few hours before I needed to get started.  I laid down on the couch and drifted off to sleep.

The Dream:

My husband and I had been outside doing things.  We were about 150-200 feet from our house, talking about something.  Then, we turned and started walking toward our house.  We saw a small airplane flying very low and very slowly, toward us, from the opposite side of our house.  We were walking southeast and the plane was traveling northwest.  My husband went inside, but I was curious and walked around to the south side of our house, so that I could see what the plane was up to.  I momentarily lost sight of the plane as I was walking to the backyard.

When it came into view again, it had turned in the opposite direction and it had stopped and was just hovering over our property in a wooded area that is just beyond our backyard, approximately 100-150 ft. from the back of our house.  Then, the plane flipped 90 degrees.  The tail was straight up in the air and the nose was toward the ground, but still just above the trees.  Then, the plane began to swing back and forth like a pendulum, but very quickly.  The nose would swing upward, no more than 45 degrees, then straight to the ground, and then swing the opposite direction at about 45 degrees.  It was swinging in a southeast to northwest direction.

With each swing, I could hear it make this sound that was like electricity.  It was a zip, zip, zip, zip sound.  If you’ve ever been in a really bad thunderstorm and could hear the static electricity crackling in the air, then you know the sound that I heard.  I had the impression that the plane was scanning the ground for something or that maybe it was just doing something to the ground.  I didn’t see anything (like a laser) coming out of the nose.

The plane was 25-35 feet long.  The body of the plane was sort of cylindrical in shape, except the nose of the plane had a much larger diameter than the area of the tail.  The nose of the plane looked flat, but it actually was somewhat concave or hollowed out, like a bowl was sitting just inside the nose of it.  There was no visible cockpit.  It had one wing on each side, but no visible engines on the wings.  It was blue and it had a little bit of midnight blue or black trim on it, and also a small amount of white or silver trim.

I watched it for a few minutes and then went into my home.  My husband was sitting in the living room watching TV.  I told him, “I’m going to take a shower”, so I took a shower and got dressed.  I came walking back into the living room with a towel around my hair.  My husband was still right where I’d left him.

I looked out the living room window into the backyard.  The plane was gone, but there were at least a half dozen small circular areas, scattered around in the wooded area, that were 2-3 feet in diameter, and a small stream of smoke was rising from the ground from each of these areas.  I didn’t see fire, just smoke.

I walked over to my husband and stood in front of him and told him about the smoke.  Then, I walked back to the window.  The smoke was gone.  This time there was a black helicopter hovering in the woods, approximately 10 feet above the ground facing the house and me and it was about 200-300 ft away.  In reality, this would be impossible because there are too many trees and the helicopter appeared to be a normal size.  I woke up.
