Reports Report 2308cq (Event 2308-2014)

Observer
Name Jaime Z
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I'm horrible at directions. I was laying in bed, we live in a hollow so I had a limited view but I definitely saw something last night. My husband didn't see it but said it was probably a helicopter. When I saw this I showed him and he said it probably was what I saw because it was around the time reported.
