This object just smoothly coasted without a sound.

My 16 year old son and me went out to our front yard with our dog to scare off a flock of crows that where picking at our lawn. I estimate the object to have been at least ¼ of a mile away and about less than 1000 feet in the air. There is a Freeway located below in the path the object was moving. My guess is that this object was probably moving at about the same speed as the cars below which is 65 miles per hour. We looked at the object to where it looked like a small dot in the distance. The object then suddenly veered upwards and then we could no longer see it in the distance.

The color of the object looked like some type of burned chrome or dull alloy. It resembled a US Stealth Bomber, but without the wings(side view) and the color. In the background, we saw a large airplane heading to Los Angeles International Airport. The airplane was heading east to west and the object north to south. It crossed directly in the planes path, except it was about a few hundred feet lower.

I am a 34-year-old Freight Transportation Contractor and my son is a High School Student. We are both very skeptical of such things. I have to say that this was a rush for me. I just had to tell someone. I was going to phone the sheriffs department, but what would they think of a local business owner without any footage.
