My parents had left the house early one morning and called from a phone booth. My mother told me to wake my brother and look out the bedroom window. When we did, we saw a large saucer-shaped object hovering over the neighbor's house just to the right of ours. The craft was large and I thought to myself it couldn't be as close as it looks - it was just because of it's large size that it looked so close. It was a silver metallic object with lights underneath. It hovered for about 1/2 hour or so until the sun started to come up. At that time, it took off swiftly at an angle and within seconds disappeared. Later that summer, while at the beach one night with friends, we spotted three mysterious lights in the sky that seemed to be following us and then in an instant they too took off at an angle and disappeared. That was the last time I ever saw anything again. My brother and I recall the sighting when we see each other. He always asks me, "Did we really see it?" and the answer is always the same. Yes we did! Why my parents never reported it, I don't know or whether they ever mentioned it to anyone else, I don't know. All I know is, we saw it and it wasn't any kind of military vehicle that I have ever seen in all my years. It's hard to be sceptical when you know you have seen something like that so vivid and so, so real. My parents were just normal people. My father a commercial fisherman and my mother a homemaker. My brother and I were just normal school-aged kids. I was around 16 years old and my brother was 11 or 12. I consider myself a very logical and methodical person who has always questioned everything throughout my life. There is no explanation for what we saw - but I know we saw it and no one will ever make me believe it was anything other than what it looked like - a genuine spaceship.((NUFORC Note: Date is approximate.
