2003-11-05 - Burlington, VT - Disk

On Nov.5th,2003 at 12:20 P.M. our 12-year old son was home early from having only one half a day of school, I was home early from work and my wife was home as well. We live in Burlington, VT near the Winooski river. I was inside the house when my son who was outside yelled loudly "Dad come outside". I ran out onto the deck to see my son pointing up in the sky "what is it?" My wife who was in our yard with our dog was looking up in the sky too said "It's a UFO". First I thought they were joking until I Looked up and to my amazement saw a flying silver metallic disk navigating in and out of the clouds, it was turning upside down then right side up. I said "that's a flying saucer". We had a visual on it for no longer than 1 minute at which time it disappeared in the clouds headed east over Colchester. Too bad I didn't have enough time to get my camcorder. I wasn't at all scared but my heart was beating fast from the experience. I called the airport air-traffic control and reported it to them.
