Two objects over West Palm Beach Florida. One changed shape and both disappeared

Approximately 9am 11/2/2009 I received a call from two of my workers on a job site claiming they saw two UFO's. They asked if I could see them from where I was. Not able to locate the UFO's I drove about 10 minutes to their location where I saw my two workers and about a dozen residents of the location on the 2nd floor of a high rise condo looking up. They described two objects, one bright red the other white, neither one blinking. One sitting still white the other circling. I always carry binoculars with me and was able to locate the two objects they described.

The two objects were directly overhead, very high in the sky but their exact height was difficult to determine as there were no clouds, blue sky and no other aircraft in the area to allow proportion.

My first thought was that the objects were lost helium balloons but it was unusual that one was motionless and and stationary while the red object seemed to drift away from the white object. After several minutes the red object drifted back toward the white object, follow a semi circle around the white object, drift away then disappear.

Convinced these were balloons I left the jobsite, residents still looking skyward, drove about a mile, stopped my truck, called my wife who was about 5 miles from my location to see if she could see the remaining object. Not having a clue as to how large an object this was or how high I figured if she could see it that far away then a) we weren't imagining anything or b) the object obviously had some size to it. After telling her where to look she spotted it also.

We both watched for about 15 seconds, her naked eyes and me though my binoculars when the object started getting very bright, change from a spherical shape to a more elongated cigar type shape, get very fuzzy or almost mirage-like then disappear.

My wife described exactly what I was viewing through the binoculars. My workers radioed the same exact description. The object,which appeared to be white then silverish blinked, got very bright, dimmed, became elongated then fuzzy then disappeared.

I tried to use my camera phone to record it but the objects were too high to get any type of accurate recorded visual. Also tried to place the lens of the camera phone up to the binocular eyepiece, which sometimes works but the objects were too difficult to locate.

The entire sighting was about 20 minutes.
