Full Description & Details
My childhood home was situated facing a chain link fence that bordered the HWY 35 W north , just south of the Diamond Lake Road exit. We had two largish windows facing the HWY.
At dusk one evening as the family was gathered in the livingroom , my mother noticed something out of the window that scared her more then I had ever seen fear in her either before the incident , or since. When we all went over to the windows to see for ourselves what it was , this is what we saw. It looked like the moon and took up about the same amount in the sky , but the light from it was different than that of the moon. It was an ultra bright , orangish, white light that was slightly obscurred by clouds. It did not have a perfect oval , disc , or round shape to it. It traveled quite slow , maybe 15 mph , but very hard to determine exactly of course. It is impossible for me to know how high up it was because at the time of the sighting I was about 4 or 5 years of age. Everything in the sky seemed like a million miles away to me. As this was one of my first memories that has stuck with me due to my mothers reaction to seeing this thing, I still believe my perception is a valid one.
From what I recall it came from the north west and veered due east which took this craft over the HWY and directly over our home. As it floated over our house , the power went out and watches stopped and a great feeling of a sort of "vacuum" or energy of some kind was in the air. Once this thing cleared our roof and floated beyond our backyard , we lost sight of it. Immediately after the disappearance of the craft , our power was restored. We watched this thing in all for about 10 or so minutes. It was most eerie and there was a strange feeling in the air.
I know what our family saw was not man made by any stretch of the imagination , therefore that confirms ( to me anyway) that I am not in my assessment , stretching mine.
