A friend and I where sitting on top of the saylorville lake resivoir damn on Monday night or actually Tues. mourning about 330 or maybe closer to 4 am. we where just talking and i was looking at my friend and all the sudden a bright flash lit up the majority of the landscape. i looked up and there was this object orange in color good deal of white glow to it as well. We saw a very neat and distinctive smoke trail behind this object. and after a short delay heard a type of crackling sound. I was just wondering if anyone may know what it was or if anything like that was to be in this area at that time*? was really cool though*!
