SIGHTING: LIBERTY HILL, TEXAS (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"I was in the back yard of my land (about five acres) with my wife and friends (nine of us total). We were roasting hot dogs and marshmallows. After eating I began to gather wood in the area to build up the fire. On one of my wood gathering sorties I stopped for a minute because I had to urinate. As I was doing this I gazed at the dark sky. I was standing about a hundred fifty feet away from the fire. I was looking to the southeast when a glowing blue orb with a flat bottom appeared in the sky about 45 degrees above the horizon. The orb was several times larger than Venus but not near as bright. It glowed a soft bluish color and looked translucent. It remained stationary and glowed for several seconds then the light blinked off. A few seconds later the light blinked on again fairly close to its previous location but a little further to the west and slightly higher in the sky. It stayed on for only about one second and then blinked off again. I did not see it again. I immediately suspected it to be a UFO because it did not resemble anything with which I was familiar. When I returned to my friends I asked them if anyone had seen the light. They had not, as I suspected, because they were seated facing to the north. I told them briefly what I saw but did not go into detail. I did tell them that I thought I saw a UFO but did not make a big deal out of it because I didn't want to appear crazy and I knew they would not believe me anyway. FYI, I was not drinking any alcohol, and rarely do. Because of the lack of any physical evidence or corroborating witness I was hesitant to make a report about this but decided that I should because it may have been observed by someone else."
