From the heart a rare and ever so ,"WOW!"

driving north bound on I-205 61/2miles due East of downtown Portland, I noticed large non blinking well lighted flying object,the flying object slowed to a halt changed color codes,shapes, and disappeared.The flying object then reappeared after about 15 seconds clearly visable.Although the rain clouds were present at 1000ft,the flying object did not go behind any cloud,throughout the encounter this flying object continued to change it's color, codes, and shapes.The flying object was silent but you could sense it's presence.During the duration of the 15 second absense of the flying object, I swiftly turned to the right to see a 1 mile paralell ball of fire ,that was traveling at my vehicles speed.This object remained visable through anything within it's course,then it disappeared.{It had the character of what would look like a comet} I look back to the leftof the night sky to see almost as if in a slowmotion effect the visual image appear again of what I'm assuming is the previously reappearing flying craft.At this point I watch the flying objectidentify itself with one position,one shape,and four large red circular lights.There were three red lights on the bottom and one light on the top of it.
