We saw something unusual and unforgetable along the river in Albany, Oregon

On 5/7/07 somewhere around 12:30 a.m. PST my friend and I were looking at stars down along the Willamette River in Albany, Or across from Bryant Park- we were just S. of Takena Landing and were on the Western side of the river...we both agreed the next falling star would appear directly due S. of us, he thought it would fall from the East and I thought it would fall from the W...I had just turned my head back to look at the S.W. part of the sky after we had both made our predictions when he said, "Wouldn't it be great if we see a U.F.O! I've always wanted to see a u.f.o" and I said, "yea! me, too!" and all of a sudden, not even a half minute later, he started yelling, "DO YOU SEE THAT? DO YOU SEE THAT?!" so I turned my head to the E. where he was pointing and way up high in the sky I could see what appeared to be a HUGE, rectangular shape that was so wide it encompassed the width of 4 stars which were directly above the shape- I could see it changing from translucence in to a more opaque coloration and as I watched I could see what appeared to be 4 windows or panels take shape on it's side...it was IMMENSE and practically invisible, it moved like one would think of a balloon moving in a summer breeze late at night...it made absolutely no noise whatsoever and made me think it could have been made of the finest silken threads or polymer fabrics...We saw it for a total of about 5 seconds at most, as it was extremely FAST and out of our view in no time at all; it appeared to follow the course of the river, heading North...My friend said that when he first saw it he saw a triangle shape emerging from the area of sky we had agreed we'd see the next falling star at, but what he saw was a triangle shape so totally translucent he could see stars through it, then he saw it make a turn N.E. and that's when I saw it...He thinks we saw a stealth bomber that was emerging from "cloak"...he thinks there IS such a thing as a total "cloak" now that goes beyond being hidden from radar, but we also feel t! hat in o rder for the thing to be SO HUGE and SO SILENT and SO FAST!!! it must have been a u.f.o....it was an absolutely amzing phenomenon we will never forget! I realise now that for us to have thought there would be something special happening from that part of the sky there had to have been a subtle discoloration both our eyes were able to see, but which was so subtle we weren't aware of it- I think now it was like that part of the sky was lighter, as if a flash from a camera had lightened it.
