This happened around MAY Of 1983. It was around 9:30 PM. Me my sister and two neighbor kids were out in the yard playing, when one of us noticed this orange ball of light coming from behind us not to far over the tree tops. We had this tall hill behind our house and our house was on a hill so you could see this coming from a good distance.

NARRATIVE

As we stood and watched this fly over top of us you could see the ball of fire rolling and you could here the sound of crackling like you would a fire.  It wasn't loud you could just here the crackling as it slowly went over us.  I've never seen anything like this again, nor have I heard of anyone witnessing this before.
