Bright star type light in sky near Tukwila, WA

Ok earlier tonight I walked to the store to get some smokes and I saw a really bright light up in the sky which i looked at for about 10 min when I left the store. I decided to show my gf once I got back in the house and she was like "Oh its the north star" But it was to the west and usually the star is north of where im at. Anyway, I showed her and then watched this bright light for about 10 more minutes and it just sat there. I checked online to see if there were any planets tonight visible and from what i came up with, Venus is supposed to be visible. So I was like cool, its Venus!! I went outside and looked at it a little while longer and didnt think much of it besides the fact that I thought it was a planet. Anyway, i just went out to look at it again and it WASNT THERE??? Its a clear sky tonight and if that wasnt a UFO, i have no idea what else it could have been. Wish I would have watched it longer. Didnt realize it was anything other then the planet I thought it was.

NUFORC Note:

Probable sighting of Venus. PD
