Object appearede as a bright light on horizon line then it moved toward us, we knew then it was not a plane. I never reported this because the few times I had spoken of this people thought I was crazy. Anyways, A friend and I had snuck out of my house one particular evening to meet up with his girlfriend.
We went over to a baseball park named Legion Feild a popular late night hangout for high-school kids. As we were sitting on the blecher my friend noticed a bright light up above the horizon line. I noticed that it looked like a flashlight or maybe even an incoming plane, but we are not in the way of any airport runways.
As we watched it approach where we were sitting we noticed it moved slower than a normal aircraft would have and that it made a sound that I could only describe as a vroom vroom vroom sound, maybe in vocal tones it sounds more accurate. I cannot remember exactly but I do vaguly recall a light beneath the craft, I just don't remember color andf if it rotated. My friend and I thought it very strange and noted that it did resemble what the stealth bomber might look like if it passed overhead.
The craft was very low to the ground as well it only felt as if it was about 500 or so feet above us. We watched it pass over our heads slowly and disappear over the treeline behind us. It has been 11 years since I have mentioned this sighting and I am sorry if this is too late to report.
I do remember my friend girlfriend showing up at the park shortly after our sighting and we asked if she saw or heard anything, she said no. Is it possible we were the only two who were allowed to see it? ((NUFORC Note: Date may be approximate. PD)).

Hopeville triangle ufo Sometime in 1991 or there about My friend and I witnessed one of the triangular ufos hovering above my neighbors garage. We were riding my quad back and as I came over a hill I saw it hovering. Stopped.
And as I turned to look at it, it took off. I watched it disappear in a distance of about 3 miles in less than a second. Description: It had 3 lights in each corner.
It was about 30 to 40 feet on one equal side. It was black. There was no sound.
Much later I wondered why it was hovering above that neighbors garage. I kept this to myself for years, but now that a lot of other people have seen the same thing it's time to say something and see what else I can learn about this.

This was a bright orange like color that was nothing like ever seen before, and it was far from (sic. in) the distance ((from)) where I was. I can tell you what it did.
It moved fast from left to right very, very fast, and stopped in one place for about four second and took off?.

Oval Shaped Silvery Metallic Craft moving in a straight line very quickly. My Mother and I were walking for exercise in the morning. It was clear out with minimal clouds.
I looked up and saw a silver/silvery white object, oval shaped, gliding in the sky at a high rate. No sound. It moved perfectly straight and very fast but seemed like it was gliding and almost weightless.
I pointed to it and my mother saw it also. We watched it for about a minute. It was so bright in color (silver) that it almost seemed white.
No windows, pefectly oval, nothing like a plane or jet. As it moved, it seemed surreal to be seeing this, I had never seen any object in the sky like this before (or since). ((NUFORC Note: Date may be approximate, although the witness does not indicate that fact.
PD)).
