Although she no longer smokes, she did back then and would go outside to smoke, as she did not like to do so in the house. I don’t remember the exact date, but one night in December a little after midnight, she went outside in the front yard to have a cigarette. She looked up and first thought she saw some geese flying, as they often come south to Texas for the winter. After looking at them for a second, she noticed that if they were geese, they were not ‘honking’ as they ususally do, and were carrying v-shaped flashlights!

She realized that she was seeing something very unusual. As she described it to me, it was a series of  individual v-shaped lights arranged in a ‘V’ pattern, with no flashing lights or beacons. It made no sound at all.  The UFO went out of her view behind the canopy of a huge oak tree we had in the front yard. She got up out of the chair she was sitting in and ran to the other side of the tree, so she could position herself to see the UFO come out into view again, but there was nothing there. It had disappeared.

She got really scared and came running back toward our house, where I met her at the front door as I was just about to join her in the front yard. The look on her face was probably about the same as if she had just seen a ghost. The sighting terrified her enough, that it took several months my prodding to get the full story in detail that I just relayed, which is unusual for her. She would only tell me that she thought she saw a UFO and that it had disappeared behind the tree canopy.

I only wish I was outside just a minute sooner so I could have seen it, too. Despite my interest in UFOs, I have still never seen one.
