Saucer shaped object sighted near Cathedral Rock in Sedona, Arizona in May,2002.

My new wife and I, on our honeymoon, observed a UFO on the night of May 29,2002.We were on the balcony of our hotel suite. I went out and noticed a saucer shaped light, engulfed in gold light,hovering near mountains and over the city of Sedona. I tried to sound calm when I asked my wife to come out to look at this object. When she did, I asked her if "this thing had been here the last few nights." She said "no." It was then that I noticed red and blue lights beaming from underneath the object. At that point, I ran to get a camera. When I ran back, my wife told me that the object "just blinked out of sight like someone turned off a light switch." The next day went on as usual, but the morning AFTER that, my wife and I woke up to five large military helicopters flying over our hotel room and heading right to the spot in which we saw the UFO a day and a half earlier.
