| Name | Kris G |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I was leaving work at 10:15 pm. I walked out the door to a small parking lot, and across the lot I saw a small - but bright - blue diagonal streak come down from above, which then faded and disappeared. It was fairly small, and disappeared only about twenty feet from the ground. I was astonished, and stood there for a few moments before walking to my car, which was parked in a different lot up a hill. I don't think I checked the ground beneath which I saw it extinguish; now I wish I had. It was a very special moment, although I'm still not sure what it was. If you can tell me, I'd be grateful! |
