Hiding in dreams often represents avoidance of something in real life, possibly unresolved issues or fears. The border of Oregon and California can symbolize a transitional phase in life, a crossing between two different states of being or experiences. Dogs often represent loyalty and protection but can also symbolize fears, anger, or negative aspects if aggressive.

The restaurant and bar might represent fulfillment, indulgence, or celebration of achievements. The broken net suggests limitations or inadequacies in current tools or strategies.
