I WAS IN 5TH GRADE AT THE TIME. WWE WERE OUT ON THE PLAYGROUND PLAYING WHEN SUDDENLY A OBJECT AS BRIGHT AS THE SUN CAME INTO THE VALLEY AT A SPEED WHICH WAS PROBABLY THOUSANDS OF MILES PER HOUR.IT STREAKED ACROSS THE SKY SILENTLY AT 3 RIGHT ANGLES, REVERSED ITS SELF BACK OVER THE SAME ANGLES AND DISAPEARED. THE EVENT WAS SHORT BUT I WILL NEVER FORGET IT. IT WAS A CLEAR WEATHER DAY.COVELO IS ALSO CALLED ROUND VALLEY.
