four orange lights

My wife and I had just delivered a RUSH job to a local mining company and we were leaving the mine site approaching State Hwy. KK. Directly in front of us about 1 mile away looking west through an open area of the tree line we saw 4 orange lights appearing to be situated on one object. Two rows of lights each row having two lights of the same size and shape. The horizontal distance between the top two lights were about twice that of the horizontal distance between the bottom two lights which were centered under the top two lights. The vertical distance between the top and bottom rows were about the same as the horizontal distance of the bottom two lights. As we moved closer to the Hwy the treeline blocked our view of the object. I then backed up for a second look and my wife and I once again clearly saw it through the opening in the tree line. It had not moved away and was still in the same position. We heard military aircraft flying close by (this is a military operations area and they practice here nearly every day). Directly across the highway is a county road where I once lived as a farm boy and the area is very familiar to me. My wife and I proceeded down the road to get a closer look at this object but never saw it again.

NOTE: My father saw strange lights in this same area on 9/23/2003 at the same time in the evening and reported to this website. I would like to take a ride with these guys sometime as I am a helicopter pilot myself......as long as they promise not to do any abductions or cattle mutilations....I am not into that kind of thing.
