Observer
Name Blake D
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks We were driving at the time and location accurate is not exact. The second appearance was the most interesting. The first seemed like something bright falling but the next popped up to the left a bit and was just there. The second also seemed to be behind some clouds a bit but no light through the clouds was seen
