Boomerang shaped object blended in with the night at least a mile long and about four stories high with 6 or 8 engith

I was setting out on the balcony on the 26th floor of Binions Casino around 2:30a.m. having a cigar taking abreak from gambling. My wife was resting on the bed. I noticed a light from the corner of my left eye and thought that it was a jet landing at NELIS AIR FORCE BASE then I noticed a second then a third then maybe 4 or 5 more, but then I noticed it turning towards Downtown L.V. and that it wasn't planes of any kind and that it was huge, by huge I mean at least a mile long and I think about 4 stories high and it blended in with the night. The way it turned or banked to the right I could tell that the lights that I saw where engines because of the way it was banking I could tell the shape and almost size of it. I was out of my chair while it went behind Fitzgealds Casino for about 3sec. and came back into view going over downtown L.V. heading west slowly I felt like I could touch it but it was wishful thinking I guess because I believe in U.F.O.s since around 1953 when my mother and I first saw our first U.F.O. in Cleveland OH. off Lake Erie from Canada, but thats another story.

But back to Las Vegas, I was so excited that I yelled to my wife to come here quick which she did and I asked her to look out in front of her and tell me what you see and she replied something dark and looked smoky or misty like a silk sheet blowing in the wind. The reason I asked her what she saw was so that I wouldn't influence her in any way. The reason she didn't see the lights or engines was because the thing leveled off. To me when it leveled off it looked like some kind of cloak like on the t.v. show Star Trek. It went right over the Stratosphere Casio.
