Full Report Text:
The object was not a plane and did not have any distinguishing features except that it was it was small gray and saucer shaped.
I saw this craft a few years ago while I was watering the trees outside. I myself have always had a strong insterest in the paranormal such as ghosts and ufos.
I have even talked my friends into going ghost hunting in our area but with little or no luck. The craft I saw was small and gray/silver far off in the distance. I was watering the trees and plants and I just looked up at the sky(I was facing south) and there it was just a small gray object in the sky that did not fit in with my memory of any object I have ever seen before in my life.
I looked down and thought about it for a second then quickly looked back up and it was gone.
((NUFORC Note: Date is approximate. PD)).

As hard as I tried to make out the craft I could not but that it was extremely bright metallic and it seemed to retract into the atmosphere. I was trying to convince my self that it was a plane but in truth I could not make out that it was a plane.
