| Name | Paula G |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | When my daughter and I first noticed the light we though it was an airplane, but then we realized it was moving to quickly. First it looked like it was coming in our direction. Then is started to fall straight down, so I suggested a helicopter. Then I said allowed if that's a plane or a helicopter, it's going to crash. After it fell behind the tree line and I saw a ball of light, without a crash or rumbling I figured it must have been a meteor. My teen daughter was so excited, she told me to speed up and wanted to try to find it. I'm glad others seen it. |
