My cousin and I were watching boxing on television at his home when his pet German Shepard was outside' and started barking like crazy. My cousin went out side to see what was wrong' and I ran to the window' to see what the problem was.

When I looked out the window' I saw a big fireball shaped like an egg '  It's color was bright red' like lava' from a volcano.  The object flew out into a cow pasture field' which faced the mountains.  
As I continued to watch the object' I noticed that it had a fin on the back of it'and' what looked like a tentecle sticking up out of the top of it. There was beams of white lite' shooting out of the tentecle' and hitting the ground' as the object flew back and forth' in the pasture field.  The object flew closer to the house' that's when I noticed that it was some sort of strange craft. It had rows of lites underneath it.
I did hear it make any sound' but the tree's and grass were moving rapidly' as if a helicopter was landing.  
There is more to my report' but to sum it up the craft hooverd about two foot from the ground.  It sit there for a minute' Then it flew up' and over towrd the mountains' in a couple seconds' and flew out of sight.
Date of the incident may be approximate, although the witness does not indicate that fact.  Witness describes self as retired military.  No time is indicated by the witness for the event.  PD
