Rode the schoolbus with friend Joel to his house after school. When we stepped off the bus, we saw a shining craft in the sky, an elongated cigar-shaped craft with no wings or contrail or anything. It was flying in strange way, going up and down like a sine wave or something, straight ahead the whole time but in an up-and-down way, like it was riding on waves or like when you skip a rock across a river or something. We could tell that it wasn't a regular airplane. Joel ran into his house to get his mom and her camera, but by the time they got back out there the craft had flown off past a bunch of trees and houses and we just weren't able to see it any more. We went in their house and called the local airport to see if they had any unusual airplanes in the area or something but the guy who answered said no, asked us where we seeing it from and acted nervous and hung up pretty quickly. Which seemed odd.
