Rockaway Beach, OR

Looking eastward while unhooking a utility trailer, I looked up and it was a brighter moonlit night and just above a small mountain horizon running left to right (north to south) for about 30 seconds I watched a faster than airplane light moving and then before it went over the horizon the light went out.

Rockaway Beach, OR

We were staying up late to ring in the new year. While looking at the stars, we all saw a few tiny orange lights in the sky. They flew erratically and were bright orange in color. Two flew south and disappeared immediately, while one took some time before getting smaller and vanishing. Two more could be seen in the distance.
