I went outside @ 9:03 pm April 29 2009 to take a phone call when I glanced upward and seen an interesting light.It was dim and white.I noticed no flashing lights of any kind,just one solid dim light.I continued to observe when after a couple minutes it grew really bright for approximately 15 seconds,then once again dimmed.I then looked away to check the time it was 9:06 pm.I looked back up afraid once I looked away and would disappear,but,it was still going.It was moving from the northwest to the southeast direction slowly.Another reason it caught my eye,I live in a fly zone with lots of air traffic.So I can distinguish a plane or helicopter.When the event ended it got to a cloudbank and as if someone shut out the lights and disappeared.This was also interesting because it never entered the clouds.It disappeared before it got to the clouds.Like a light switch.Very odd behavior for a plane or helicopter.It was definitely something different.Well as for this story it isn't my only sighting in this area.I have seen dozens around here.Many being this same type.It always gives me goosebumps like wow!Well thats my story.Feel free to contact me on this matter.I believe and want answers as well from the Government.Yours Sincerely,Douglas Walker
