Observer
Name Mychelle M
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks Thank you. Entering this information was enjoyable and fairly easy to do. I am very excited to see if anyone else in my general area saw what I saw. It was beautiful, simply amazing. I tried to get my mother to turn around quick enough to see it but it happened so quickly. And it was so HUGE! And colorful!
