Experience description:

In San Francisco, a dream occurred at night, while asleep.  The dream was memorable, and the dream happened when I already knew about and was planning to move to a ranch in eastern Wyoming where I would learn about organic ranching and farming from a sheep herder.  The dream was about hearing gunshots, as well as hearing bullets passing overhead, from my right to my left.  The vision of the dream involved me looking ahead, standing in broad daylight in a field.  When hearing the gunshots and the bullets passing overhead, I looked up.  That was the dream.  Weeks later, I really was standing in an alfalfa field in eastern Wyoming, looking east towards the eastern end of the ranch where the sheepherder was using his car to herd some sheep towards a pen.  He had no trained sheep dog at that moment available.  Then, my previous dream came true, exactly, in every way.  I heard gunshots, as well as bullets passing overhead from my right (south) to my left (north).  Just like in the dream, I looked up.  Next, I looked to my right where I saw a man on the neighboring ranch.  He was holding a rifle, and he quickly moved behind a building.  I realized that my dream had come true so I felt no fear.  I guess that the man had become upset at the unusual sight of the sheepherder using a car to herd sheep.  Later on, the sheepherder asked me to get my goat to lead the sheep into the pen.  Worked well.
