| Remarks | I wish I remembered the exact year. It was definitely in August, between the years of 2006 and 2010. My daughter and i were peacefully watching the ocean from a beach house balcony and it was so alarming and unexpected that she jumped and her heart was beating out of her chest! It looked like something that would drop from the sky during an end of the world event. I think it fell into the ocean, though we didn't hear/see a splash. |
