Small disc hovers over our backyard.
It was a beautiful cloudless day and my two kids and I were in the backyard. They were running around playing and I was BBQing. As I was cooking something caught my eye to the West. At first I thought someone was burning something in there backyard about 3 houses down from me.
Let me give you a perspective: It looked like a cloud of smoke hanging in the air about 10 feet about the roof line. It was as big as a small RV. As I looked at the cloud I thought is was odd. Then the whole thing moved.. it went south and did a small u-turn and stopped right over our backyard.
My kids were very excited and got behind me as I was looking at this cloud that moved as if it were being driven. There were no distant lines to it ..it was cloaked. It was so close I could have picked up a rock and smacked it very easily. There was no sound or lights at this point. It was just hanging in the air over our backyard.
At this point we were all very excited when all of a sudden a portion of the cloud kind of rolled back and we saw a bank of about 7 rectangular lights. Each light was about 8 X 4 inches. I saw the lights as multicolored, my kids saw the lights as all one color; purple.
Then the cloud rolled back over where the lights were and flew to the north faster then anything I’ve every seen and it disappeared very quickly.
After it flew away I told my daughter to go in the house and draw what you saw. She did this before any of us discussed the event. A few minutes later she came back with a drawing of what we all saw except she draw the color of the lights as all purple as where I saw multicolors.
