These were four brightly luminous objects observed in the broad daylight. They were lined up in a row-vertically. They were all spherically shaped except the upppermost, which was shaped like a classic child's top. They were all self-luminescent, and the appearance suggested some type of connecting, luminous cord. All objects gave off a bright glow, similar to the glow given off by adjacent, moisture-laden clouds reflecting the bright sunlight. The bottom sphere seemed to be smaller than the middle two, and, as stated before, the uppermost was shaped like your classic spinning top. These objects would have never been detected had I not deliberately looked up. I went in the house-they were first observed from my front porch-to get a camera. When I returned, they were gone. They were observed by yours truly, my wife, and eldest daughter.
