I saw 3 very bright crafts, a big one in the middle, and 2 smaller ones on either side, hovering then moving fast, back and forth
My sister and I were driving across country, starting off in N.J. and ending in San Diego, where I was attending S.D.S.U.and where we were going to meet our parents, who were flying out.
Lisa and I left Boulder,Co. with our next planned stop to be Las Vegas. I was driving and Lisa was snoozing. I remember turning off the a/c and the 8 track tape we'd been listening to and rolling down the windows because it was such a nice calm night driving through the desert. I noticed quite a few stars out, then an erie feeling came over me.
All of a sudden, to my left, I saw what seemed to me to be 3 very very bright objects or crafts. A bigger one in the middle and two smaller ones on either side. They all moved in a pattern that I'd never seen before in my life..... Like all of a sudden they were forward, and then they were back,and then side to side, with the (mother ship?) moving first, then the 2 on the side, moving exactly at the same time.
I quickly woke up my sister (which I really didn't want to do since she was driving me crazy, never shutting up since we left Jersey) But I needed a witness to this crazy thing I was seeing. I pulled over to the side of Interstate 15 and my sis saw the same thing I saw and said, "Oh my God"! "what is that?"
Now the really weird part......I hadn't seen one other car on the highway for maybe 2 hours. Now, all of a sudden, there was this guy standing at my car window, startling Lisa and I, to say the least. He asked if we were OK and we excitedly yelled "turn around, look!" And as he did, the bright lights disappeared. He again asked if we were OK and if we needed anything and we said no thanks. Then he was gone! The strangest thing about this story was my that sister and I have never mentioned a thing about this to anyone or each other until 2 Christmas's ago at my mom and dad's home in Scottsdale ,AZ, 23 years later. It was as if we were kept silent on purpose, cause our family is very close and very loud and talkative and we found it so so weird that we were just now bringing up the subject. Just to make sure I wasn't going crazy, I asked Lisa to tell me everything she could remember about that night. and bingo...exactly as I remembered it too. She even described the guy at the window to the tee as I remembered. The unusual things about him were he was very short, barley coming up to the roof of the car, he had on a silver metalic zip up jumpsuit (which I don't know if they even made them yet in 1978) and the deepest set green green eyes you've ever seen. I didn't think anything of it but Lisa brought up the fact that not many people if any were wearing colored contacts in those days, and there was no possible way those green eyes were his real color.He also had dark skin and the most chisled features we'd ever seen on a person. I also asked Lisa what he was driving that night. She said a motorcyle and that's what I thought too. The only thing was that neither one of us saw him pulling up or pulling away, which seems odd to me being that there was no one else on the road, and no exits off the highway for the longest time. ( I remember this because I thought I was going to run out of gas but thank God a gas station had just opened, because we hit a little part of Arizona on the 15, so instead of 5 am it was 6 am ( they're not on daylight savings time.) So where did that guy come from or go? And why did the lights disappear right when we told him to LOOK!? I was watching a show on Discovery or the History channel tonight on UFO's and it sparked my memory so I found your sight on my computer and thought what the heck, I might as well document our incident, whether anyone believes us or not. One more thing I remember. When the sun came up and the 6 o'clock news came on ,they mentioned that several people had reported seeing UFO'S, the night before, going out of the Rockies and into the dessert. I wonder why no one else has written anything about it?
