Today we celebrate in Quebec our national holiday. Returning home from the festivity, live band and fireworks, my daughter asked me to try a flying gadget that we bought in Paris last may. It a sling shot that catapult a winged stick with a light that should spiral slowly down. Of course the thing wont work as it should but after a few try as we were following it on it way up, we, me my wife and daughter, saw a flash of strobe light where their was nothing before and from it, appeared a triangular flying object with three amber light at each end of the triangle. It flew over us silently, no noise of jet engine or propeller and no regular green light or red light on the left and right wing as prescribe by regulation. It was quit low, I estimate between 5 to 10 thousands feet, the night was clear no cloud at all as is usual after a cold front from the north west. It flew from west to east and once it passed over head, we could see that the 3 lights didn't flash but were continuous and as it flew away, the front light dimmed down but the 2 at the rear were still visible. It was visible for about 15 sec. from the initial strobe flash till it flew behind the tree line.
This is not my first sighting of unusual flying object but it was the first one with other witnesses. Well, the last 2 days have been out of the ordinary, yesterday 5.0 or more earthquake and today U.F.O. who drop by during the St-Jean baptiste celebration. What surprise is up for tomorrow, as we say here jamais deux sans trois, never two with out three. Time for a last cigarette and walk the dog now and maybe see some more high strangeness in the clear night sky. Good night!
