I saw a light traveling directly overhead,silently at 3000 ft.

First of all, I must say that i am a little confused about the exact date because I have waited approximately one year from date of incident. I did not know who to report this to until I found this website and thought it important to report it even at this late date. What I am not confused about, or my two sons, is what we saw. We saw one night just before dark between the dates May 19 and May 27 2000, approximately May 23 a very strange circular light traveling in the sky at approximately 3000 ft. altitude, from east northeast to west southwest. This light appeared diffused, but was obviously at a low level altitude. The light was mostly white to pink in color and very odd. Having been raised one mile from an airport and an Air National Gaurd airbase, as well as a father with 40 years aircraft mechanic experience and myself as a aircraft mechanic in the airforce, I have seen most every imaginable aircraft known to man. This craft, or light, was obviously a UFO. The sky in the backdrop was near dusk and virtualy cloudless. The flight path that this was on carried it directly overhead. As it approached I noticed there was no sound whatsoever. Being alarmed by this I sent my youngest boy running in the house to retrieve a disposable camera that unfortunatly was in my vehicle at my wifes work. As my child went to retrieve camera my other son and I continued to keep our eyes trained on said craft. It continued its path diligently without variance. I followed it with my eyes as far as I could until it dissapeared. When it dissapeared I immediately went to the middle of the street looking up and down searching for someone else who seen this. Unfortunately, there was no one. I will conclude by saying this: This was a UFO. Not only to me, but to anyone who would have saw it on this earth. Also, having lived in this town for 38 years I have learned the flight paths of aircraft in this area. In my three years living at this house I have never seen an airplane, helicopter, durigable, or any o! ther cra ft fly in this direction. Especially at that altitude. For the last year I have dilligently watched the sky looking for a craft flying this direction. To no avail. But I gotta tell ya, the no noise thing to this day gives me goosebumps. Please don't think were crazy, we are really very normal people and have been very hesitant in discusing this with anyone. Please feel free to contact me anytime and I will discuss this in greater detail if needed. Thank you.
