Observer
NameBernadette W
Experience Level1/5
RemarksHad been looking at venus & moon before crossing the floor to turn on a lamp. Saw motion of an oval light larger than the moon dropping towards the ground/ocean. Brief, precipitous, disappeared behind trees. I crossed the floor further to a doorway to look/listen outside. Quiet, peaceful, no sign of smoke. Checked every 15 mins to make sure we didn't need to escape any fire. Saw/heard nothing more.
