Milton, MA

So my sister and I was driving home from work at 10:30-11:00 ish. So we were in an area that for miles it’s was woods and zero cell service. Then we see a something oval in the ski with flashing lights. It was just sitting there and my sister and I was thinking we’re just imagining it. Then it started moving at a fast rate that’s when we know it’s not a airplane.
