Name Joel C
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks My daughter, Lauren, also witnessed it. She claims to have seen a rainbow of colors. To give you an idea of it's relative size, if you hold your hand out as far as you can, with fingernails visible, this object was about the size of an adult pinky fingernai, maybe slightly largerl.
