Tonight is March 4, 2014.

Around 20:45, I was outside locking up the animals for the night. My home is not located in town, so no street lights. It's very dark.

I notice strange lights, for my protection. So when I spotted a glow from the corner of my eye, I walked to a clearing to get a better visual.

It was a fireball or bright light extremely high in the sky. I'm familiar with air traffic here and this was not normal. It was a bright or glowing deep orange-red crossing the sky.

My mother was inside the house. I yelled for her to fone quick.

We stood watching for about 45 more seconds until the light disappeared, as if slipped through a trap door.
