Did I Finally See a UFO?!

Any of you who know me, know I'm totally fascinated with ghosts, UFOs, bigfoot - anything weird or bizarre.  I would love to experience any of these oddities.
Well, I may have done so but I just don't know.

I wake up early, usually between 5am and 6am.  The other morning I woke up at 5:30 and turned on the tv to watch the Olympics.  On the side of our rental we have French doors that look out over the foothills with a few homes on acreages just across Dry Creek Rd.

I was watching tv when I noticed (it was still very dark outside) out of the corner of my eye, an orange object that looked to be about the size of a marble (from here) moving horizontally across the window.  I thought it must be a reflection.  Nothing on the tv was orange and I didn't have any lights on in the house.  I watched it for a minute never taking my eyes off it because I couldn't figure out what it was.  There are no roads over there.  Finally I got up and walked over to the glass door and peered out.

I cupped my hands around my eyes and watched as this orange glowing "orb" moved slowing between our house and the foothills.  It went behind a tree and then came out the other side, then, changed to white - like a headlight but not nearly as bright.  I couldn't believe my eyes because I knew after plastering my face against the window that it was definitely not a reflection of something.  There was something there.

I ran the few steps to grab the binocs and when I looked back it was gone.  I looked through the binocs for a long time trying to find it again but couldn't.  I have no idea what I saw but it was weird.

Below is a picture.  I didn't take this picture, it was on the internet, but this is exactly what it looked like.

Oh! Could it have been a bicyclist on one of the trails?

Nope, Linda thought that too. As I look out my window during daylight to where I saw it, it was between the trees just off Echinova Dr. and the house just across Dry Creek. It was definately in the air.

So Lyn, how far away were the rods you saw? That's bizarre and don't they move pretty fast? I can't believe you got pictures!

I'm so jealous! Meg and boys and I went on tour of the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park last week, the hotel that inspired Steven King to write "The Shinning" book. I am a believer, but it was pretty lame how that tried to sell the fact that the hotel has ghost kids runnin' around...still fun hour spent tho!
