Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I left a detailed report just a few minutes before this one. I just wanted to add that this was quite an amazing experience. I have never seen anything like this. Though there was no audible noise it seemed to be be extremely low to the ground. Again it was just amazing and a sight I will never forget! Also for some reason this form would not except my primary e-mail address so i gave my work address before. My primary address is Tcolw86@yahoo.com Thanks! Trevor Colwes
