Algonac lights on 7-15-06 evening

About 10:30 - 11:00PM while camping at Algonac State Park around a campfire and looking at the passing of stars/satellites, everyone noticed a very bright star light immediately appearing about 1/2 way up the horizon in the Northeast. Over the Ontario side of the St. Clair River. It was very bright almost like a jet with it's landing lights on and sort of moving towards us in the heavens. All 4 of us saw it as it was very bright for about 4 seconds and moved south as if the speed of a satellite. It then continued and got dim (like a satellite) about 5 seconds later, it appeared to break into two different satellite like lights and moved in 2 different directions at satellite speeds. The two objects then moved out of view traveling two different directions to the south.
