The fireball was beautiful. It was the first I time seeing anything like that. Glad I had a witness there too. We had arrived back from taking our 5th graders to Sea World. Only a few people were left in parking lot. I saw it when it first came into the sky. Good thing I was looking up into the sky. It was going pretty fast.
