Duration: 30 Minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Plantation (northern coast), CA, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object

Three star-like lights on/in the pacific ocean, one took off and disappeared at about 150 MPH, the others vanished.

Camping on the northern CA coast - up on a 1,500 ft. hill about 1/2 mile as the crow flies from the coast, laying on the ground with blankets, bored, stargazing. I noticed three white lights that looked like big stars, but they were way too low to be stars. They were in the fog, about ocean level, so I thought they were three ships. Then they seemed to go away and come back, which I attributed to fog. It was weird because the lights didn't fade in and out with the fog. So I started paying attention since I see UFOs now that deliberately look and I know what to look for. Then the one on the left silently took off in a zigzag to the left at about 150 MPH, which is something boats can't do. The other two just vanished a few minutes later. It's okay to watch them when they're there, but when they disappear that means they could be sneaking up to abduct me, so that's when I hide. Some people think it's cool to see them, some signal them with their lighters, but after my Grand Canyon experience, I'm just afraid, so I locked myself in the back of the truck with my 44 Magnum and was sleeping in minutes.
