| Remarks | I was just amazed at seeing this. I was in shock at first because i have never witnessed anything like this in my lifetime. It was truly an unbelievable experience for me. I was sitting at my computer just winding down form my day events and caught a bright blue light from the corner of my eye. i looked out my window facing the North towards Pine Village Indiana. What i saw next was amazing. This bright blue light came down from the North West sky turning from bright blue to a lighter blue. As it started falling further to the east the colors changed quickly from blue to green then orange. Eventually fading out to a light orange, yellowish color. After that it disappeared out of sight. This all happened so fast and I feel blessed to have been able to witness this event. |
