Last night's dream -- merino sheep

Last night, I dreamt of merino sheep. First they were on a plateau just above a cliff face in Scandinavia. Everything was bathed in a kind of orangy light, making the flat grass and cliff seem smooth and strange. These sheep were of the past, truly ancient, and were the sign of Scandinavian society's wealth as it moved towards the future. Next, there were Merino sheep more locally, but I don't remember them well at all. These sheep were in Australia, in the present, where the light is clear, less orangy and more translucent.
