Above I am unsure of day, date,time or month. I do know it was within 24 hours of Stephensville News. Article in Texas monthly has me writing this. I reported this to my wife and friends after first news later that night of stephensville-----------I am 64 retired and respected bussiness man on lake Sam Rayburn. OK. On my back porch I have a panaramic view east to west. I was marvaling at the beautiful blue perfect sky. no clouds anywhere. The following is how my mind was working-----I saw a very large chrome shiny object come over east horizon many miles away. pretty plane?? Now I can tell its going to pass completely over east to west in front of me. nothing but blue sky and no sun glint. My mind says that that is a big plane. next thought was where is vapor trail and its large beautiful and shiny. No vapor then must have props. But its bigger than the biggest plane. So I will hear something when its passes overhead. Still no sound and no vapor and extremely long and large. Dont know high but very high up and still large. Mind says--hey wait a minute, there are no chrome airplanes that dont make noise are vapor. Could I have seen the space station from here?? watched for 5-10 minutes then out of sight. That night the stephensville news came on and I know directions. This object was in a line from Louisiana to below Dallas. That night is when I told my wife that I saw IT. Then when they said it was mile long and 1/2 mile wide I said it easily could have been. Then days later on a UFO hunter show they showed a big long cigar shape object and my wife asked if thats what I saw and I said exactly. I am home grown salt of the earth and I know what I saw and its nothing in it for me to spend 30 minutes typing this. Ronnie
