Observer
Name Matt and Autumn M
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks We had never seen anything like this! I (Autumn) saw it first and had time to say "Do you see that?!" and my husband looked and saw the very end. He thought it landed in the neighbors yard (We were driving home and live in that little neighborhood.), but i think it landed in the pastures past our home. amazing!
