It is now 11:30 p.m., I have tried for over 4 hrs to get on line
and this is the first time I have got on.
I called the West Columbia Police and also the Sheriff dept. to
see if anyone else reported the lights. They said no. I think my
husbands directions are all mixed up. If you are coming out of
Brazoria around that long streach where you can go 70mph thats
where he spoted the formation of lights. He said from that
distance they looked about above tree level as he was coming
closer to West Columbia, just before you get to the 4 lane hwy he
said he had to look up as they passed over him. He said he
thought they were about a thousand feet up, I told him I don't
know how far a thousand feet would be, so he said about 3 radio
towers high. here is the formation he drew. Sighting around 7:30
p.m.
0 0
0
0 0
If you were to number each 0 as a light, the one to the far right
he said was the tail end of the formation. The red lights would
come on in random order, no two would be on at the same time, say
the flashes of light were a second apart.
So you might have 1 2 3 4 5 and the lights might light up in
31452 random order. He said they just cruised across the sky in a
steady formation. So if you were coming out of Brazoria, they
would have come from the left hand side of the road over to the
right side an on to Bailys Prarie or Angelton or maybe Lake
Jackson area. He said all the lights were on the same level, but
he said they were spaced apart more than a football field length
would be.
I asked if he could make out the shape of the objects and he said
all he could see was the lights at one point he described them as
coming out of a cone shaped area. He was all wound up, because he
thinks this ufo stuff is a bunch of hooey. But now he is
wondering just what it was he saw. The guy in the car behind him
ran off the road. He doesn't know if its because he slowed down
to stare at the objects or if the guy behind him also saw the
objects. He's not making much sense to me, because the way he
drew his formation picture is backwards in relationship of what
direction he said the things were going.
It couldn't have been a radio tower, because radio towers don't
cruise overhead to the other part of the sky. I don't think it
was helicopters, there would have been more lights etc, So I
don't know what he could have saw. But it sure shook him up!
I tried the bulletin board, but could not find where to post
anything and also I didn't see any thing new except for the menu.
Also for some reason, everytime I try to leave I get a error and
my system crashes. All the ufo sightings were the same ones that
have been up for over months now. So I don't know what I'm doing
wrong!!
