Billboard of white light.

I wake up very early first day in a new town and decide to see what I see out the window- if it's bright out yet. It is dark out the side window but there's some light coming from somewhere.

I go back to the large bedside window and see an 8-10 foot tall rectangular billboard just across the path from from my cabin. All white light but brighter in the middle as if stretched from center to all 4 corners (as a photoshop gradient tool creates). I wonder why they put up that massive thing to light the road and if there's others on the path. Why not just little tea lights? Then I wonder if it's a giant sun lamp and think "who needs a sunlamp in daily 90* weather?"

I push the curtain aside, making noise that others heard, and look from different angles through the glass thinking maybe it's some kind of illusion but it appears to stay where it is.

I try to open the window and it shifts just enough so I can see clearly but it's too noisy and I don't want to wake anyone up so I stop pushing it.

I got up and went to the door to see but as I put my hand on the doorknob a feeling of dread came over me.

I had considered going outside but became scared as I flashed on me alone and the brambles of the jungle ground just outside the door in the pitch black and also thought the thing might disappear if I go out- I go to the bathroom instead and then lay in bed reading until the sun rises. For some reason I thought it would just be/stay there.

When I did walk out in the morning there was not a trace of anything where it should have been. No damage to the grass or disruption in the gravel directly across the road- most of all- no billboard! I remained baffled all day and began to look online. This site is what I came across googling "billboard of light."
