| Name | shelly M |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It was amazing. We could not believe our eyes. From where we were looking it looked as if it was coming straight down. We just happened to have our sliding door open, because the fireplace made our den so hot, and we did not hear a thing. It looked as if it was really close and headed out onto our lake yesterday just to make sure there wasn't something, but I suppose like anything in space, things are always farther away than they appear. It was a cool experience. |
