I saw something this past week while in traffic on I-985 going northbound between Oakwood towards Gainesville, Georgia. This occurred this past Wednesday, May 3rd around 5 pm. It was a beautiful warm, sunny day here in the south. Not a cloud in the sky and perfect blue skies. We were all stopped due to a car accident up ahead and traffic was almost at a standstill. We were crawling up hill, and there are lots of trees surrounding the interstate. You could only see the one lane of traffic heading northbound. As I was traveling up the hill in my car at a slow speed. I happened to look up and notice a silver, mylar looking balloon. I instantly was given the thought, "some kid let his balloon go heading southbound in the next lane over that I could not see". But, as I observed this balloon looking thing. It would rotate over and over, very much like a balloon. It even tried making a star shape seem to come out of this changing shape of a balloon, but it could not carry that star shape. It kept evolving and rotating over and over. It just wanted to trick us, but it couldn't! I also looked to see if there was a string attached, but I could not make one out. It seemed very smooth in appearance. No seams whatsoever. And it slowly floated across the road heading from west to east. So, after that first one went across the road and disappeared above the trees a second round object, silver in appearance and very shiny like the first, except this second UFO was not slow at all. It was not rotating like the first. It zoomed across our view. It was going at a pretty fast speed, heading from west to east. It seemed of a more hard material - not as fluid as the first. I realized too late that it was a UFO, due to the thought that was put into my mind about the first being a balloon. I picked up my phone hoping to catch it on video, but all I could get was a fast disappearing tiny white ball, barely seen in the distance. As i continued up towards Gainesville, I saw a plane headed in the same direction. I believe it may have sighted these two objects and was trying to give chase. It sure fascinated me!
