space invaders. in Book of Lies.....

Yes I am going to tell a UFO story. Two to be exact.

Now to begin this isn’t a flying saucer and” aliens are here rant”, just two interesting experiences I have had in my life.

About ten years ago I was out on a warm summer night sitting on my patio. I enjoy looking at the stars at night and anyone who does not star gaze to decompress is truly missing something. Not only the view is amazing but the stillness of evening can unwind those crushing stressors we all face. I digress.

I noticed a plane in the night flying in my general direction. You can probably spot three or four in the night sky any time you look up. What I noticed was that the trajectory was off. It wasn’t flying quite straight but not what one would call a veer or course change. It was more like if you were to take a bobber on string and pull it across a flowing current. It just wasn’t right.
It eventually flew directly over me at a low altitude, no flashing light and not a sound. I have been around airports all my life. I could not recognize it as anything I have ever seen before.

So why tell this now…

Last Friday I was picking up a friend at the airport (ironically) and was heading back home. It is approximately a 30 minute drive. Perfectly clear night. I mentioned as I was driving the bright star / planet in the sky straight ahead. I was corrected by my friend as this was too bright and was an incoming plane.

An incoming plane that never came. I was the driver so I had the task at hand but this was bright and the only movement was being done by us. It was BRIGHT. It was big and through the windshield it was like diamond shaped from the side view. For the 30 minutes we drove it was stationary and my very skeptical friend was completely baffled as she could look at unimpaired. She was not impaired by the need to not put us in the ditch with the distraction.

To be clear.... college graduate. Professional. Well heeled and not looking for any attention in the matter.

But it wasn’t swamp gas.... a weather balloon… just a freaky experience and something I cannot explain.
