A lot of fog and mist about 20 feet high starting from the ground and about 15 feet wide with different color lights circling it.

It was a a really, quiet night summer night. I was asleep in bedroom, home for summer vacation after my sophmore year in college. I could not sleep so like I used to do on some nights, I looked out my window. Across the street from where we lived was an open field maybe 50 yards wide and long. The sky was unusually bright to be 2:00 am in the morning. I saw a lot of fog and flying around the fog were different color lights that were red, blue, green and yellow. I ran and told my mother and father and they told me to look out the door. I opened the door and it was still there, probably about 60 feet in fron of my house. I was frozen and I thought about running out and running into the fog to see what would happen. I did not have the guts to do it and I watched for about 15 minutes. It still did not vanish! After a while a went back to the room and layed back down. When I looked out of the window about an hour later it was gone. I do not know if it was a UFO or a ghost or a portal to another dimension but I am glad that I had the experience.
Date is approximate.  PD
