An account in Tuolumne County, California
I'm writing this with some hesitation as I'm still not sure what, if anything, I saw but, having read varying reports of similar occurences in the area I'm about to describe, I thought you might be interested. I hesitate because for many years now I've attributed what I saw to an often-active imagination and "trick" of light. Let me explain.

It didn't move and we stood looking at it for what must have been at least a minute. My brother then became upset and we ran from the area as fast as we could.
