Multi-colored lights in a wide V-formation, hovering, hose or shaft of light lowering with light on end

This occured about 9:00-9:30 p.m.

I was driving home from the grocery store and it was lightly raining. It's all residential where I was driving, and something caught my eye out to the left.

There is a lot of pasture that is being developed and as I drove around this winding 2-lane, I looked out to a clearing, and there were these red, blue, yellow, white, lights in a really large triangular shape. The crazy thing is that this thing was very large and hovering over the ground approximately 2-3 miles up.

Hanging from this object was like a hose or something being lowered. It had almost a dull greyish-white neon appearance to it, and at the very bottom was a brighter white light. I would have to guesstimate that this shaft was approximately 1 block long. The shaft of light appeared to not have a large circumference to it.

I thought at first it must have been some sort of hose with this light on the end of it. I thought is this thing a Stealth and these pilots are just jacking around? But from the way the lights appeared, the V was much wider then the Stealth appears.

I was a few miles away from it. At first I thought about trying to get a closer look but I remembered I had a lot of frozen food in sacks.
