Observer
Name Kathy W
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I was lying down in bed about 30’ high which is the 3rd floor of the house looking over the water and saw it out of the blue. It was so exciting. I did open up my compass on my iPhone and took a screenshot of the coordinates of where I thought it came from. If you want my guess of the coordinates I have a screenshot. Unfortunately no video
