| Name | Anne S |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Because this occurred over the lake at night, there was not a lot of light interference. I had just gotten home from work and was still sitting in my car. I habitually check the sky in the mornings when I leave and evenings when I get home. I've only had one other impressive sighting many years ago and thought I would never be fortunate enough to see another. I like rock hunting and my immediate thought was, where would this land? |
