On Wednesday March 17, 1999, after leaving Wendover Nevada, we were heading east to Salt Lake City on I-80. At mile marker 28 all occupants in our vehicle noticed 4 circular shapes with very bright yellow lights. Shortly after noticing this, the lights quickly dimmed - as is you were to turn out the lights. Within seconds, two short burts of light appeared on the ground below. I have not been one to firmly believe in UFO's but after seeing these lights, I will not doubt them.
