Triangular craft with pulsating multi-colored lights; moving in various directions in no apparent course.

While taking my dog out prior to retiring for evening I had occasion to glance up to the west/southwest sky due to unusually bright moving object which caught my attention immediately. Due to object moving left to right; right to left and up and down I ran inside to get binoculars and inform family members. While looking at object through binoculars it "glowed" or pulsed; seemed to have lights of red, green and white/yellow-white on sides and bottom of a triangular-shaped craft. Lights seemed to pulse. Object continued movement in no apparent course ( up, down, left-to-right, right-to-left) . It never moved fast. At times it just hovered; with no movement at all. Object was visable until approx. 01:00 when it just seen to move away slowly and deliberately in a westerly course and disappeared. Two other adult family members witmessed this unusual sighting. I called the Marion County Sheriff's office dispatch @ approx. 02:00 and was told no one reported any sightings this evening.. I am a 46 year old female with 7 years law enforcement background ( and one direct UFO experience in Charleston, S.C. in 1974) in USAF and 15 years in Minuteman ICBM Operations in USAF . (Captain, U.S. Air Force, retired.) Second witness is a 52 year old male with over 30 years experience in flight simulators (both military and civilian) maintenance and operations (SMSgt USAF, retired). Third witness is a 46 year old female with no military or aviation background.
