March 1, 2005 outside of Dewitt IA on I30, there were 6 lights grouped into 2 triangular configurations near the eastern horizon

We were traveling on Interstate 30 East out of Clinton/Dewitt Iowa. The sun was behind the horizon causing a red hue in the sky. We noticed three lights near the eastern horizon (off to our left a little bit) in the grouping of a triangle. As we continued to drive eastward, we no longer could find them, but we noticed another triangle grouping of lights slightly to our right (northward). They did not seem to descend. They were too high off the horizon to be towers. They did not blink, but seemed to flicker. We eventually drove on the 61 southward. We caught glimpses of them through the trees, but as the darkness took over the horizon, we lost sight of them. From the time we noticed them, to the time we could not see them anymore, a total of about 30 minutes had passed. We also noticed during this time, other light orbs not in triangular groups.
