On the morning of Wednesday 9. I was driving to work at approximately 6:53 AM.
As I was exiting the highway to go over the overpass. I looked up to the sky way up in front of me and this object caught my eye immediately. It’s seem to be about a mile away.
I quickly determined that it was not moving. It was not a plane or helicopter or anything I’ve seen. It was very very still. It wasn’t very big. If you held a dime in front of you it looked that big, but mile away.
The belly of this object was dark. On the top of the roof of it, I could see the sun reflecting off it. I could tell that the roof of it was metallic.
It was shaped like a saucer but more rounded. The strangest thing about it was that it had an orb around the craft. I could see the space between The craft and the black shadowy orb that and in-circled it.
I only had about I only had about 100 yards till I had to make my right turn. The rest of my drive to work had trees that blocked my view from further seeing this UFO.
I wish I had stopped right away to take a picture. I was mesmerized by this site. I couldn’t stop on the overpass anyway and I only had a few more minutes to get to work. It was a really cool sight to see.
