Remarks I was sitting on my back patio I look to the south of my home I saw a reddish orange flame shooting out coming down at about a 40 45-degree angle it went behind Pinnacle Peak mountains and I didn't see it again this happened roughly in late 04 or early 05 I have not been able to find anyone to tell my story to I'm sure it was a meteor I saw nothing on the news and there was no plane crash I don't think anyone else saw it as there was not a lot of homes built out where I was feel free to call me 707-720-6992
