My sighting in Santa Fe,New Mexico
It was late 1966 or early 1967,the weather was cold,but no snow.I lived just outside the city limits with my mother.We went to the drive-inn theater about half a mile west of the trailer park on the road to Albuqerque.It was late at night,yet alot of traffic going west.The movies ended and we headed home,mom got into the left turning lane into the trailer park.I was in the back seat looking at the tree line that follows the fence line around the trailer park, and that is when I saw it,just about 100 feet away.It was beautiful.I got a clear view of the saucer as it just hovered in the air beside the tree line at the west fence of the property.I rolled down the window to make sure what I was seeing was real,and it was.With traffic going east into Santa Fe and west to Albuqerque all along the sides the road was lite up,it was a full moon.The saucer hovered about 12 to 15 feet off the ground.Since it was a full moon,the trees cast a light shadow downward and the saucer was in that shadow,yet I could still see it.There was no sound coming from it,I could only hear the vehicles passing by,and I saw blasts of fire coming from ports around under its mid section.Colors of blue,red and orange was seen. The ports were round and about 8 or 10 inches around. The flames came out from left to right,and left me with the impression flames were going around over and over below its mid section.I played in this area,it was an empty field with 3 feet high grass. Directly under the craft nothing was moving,but to the outside of its downward blasts the high grass was moving violantly.I could make out small lines that went around one side and met up with the other side.Now this left me seriously disturbed that night, it may of been great to see it,but I was only 11 years old.The next day I went out to get the local newspaper,"The New Mexican" for mom,she gave me the other sections of the paper,and there I found it,a farmer had taken a picture of what I saw,he had seen it the evening before and got it to the newspaper and they printed it.Well thats my real life event,and now I'm 51 years old and want to tell what I saw.If anyone has access to the state librairy in Albuquerque you will have an opportunity to see what we saw.Just go do the research and post it here if possible.
