Four, extremely bright orange circles in the sky catch my attention

I saw four extremely bright orange objects in the sky. They hung in the sky in a vertical line and the one at the bottom was veering off to the right in a very slow motion. The other three (on top) were not moving at all except that they were twinkling like crazy. I really have to stress how bright these objects were. They looked like little balls of orange glitter being hit with a very bright sun. I've never seen anything like it--nothing that bright.

I watched these objects for maybe 60 seconds before I ran into the house to awaken my husband. I didn't even think to grab the video camera which is just as well because by the time we got out there, they were gone. I ran out into our street in hopes of seeing them from a different angle but I saw nothing. They were gone that quick.

Anyway, I wanted to at least share what I saw because maybe someone out there saw them too.
