Big Round Circle UFO Sighting, A.M.

I was driving W on Guadalupe Rd. in Mesa, AZ, from Ellsworth Rd. As I was driving I noticed off in the distance, above a Walgreens, positioned SE what appeared to be a black hot air balloon. It was big and barely moving, if at all.

As I was looking at it, slowly, my skepticism grew. As I drove for another 5-6 seconds, I considered turning on and grabbing my video camera that I had in the car with me. I am doubtful when it comes to a UFO sighting (I've always wanted to see one) so I feel as if my mind plays tricks on me.

This was no trick. It was huge. And as I drove with smy head out my drivers side window and stared, I rolled through a light.

There were 3 ladies out running on the corner, and they had stopped to wait for the light. I looked at them to see if they were seeing what I was seeing but it did not seem like it.

The UFO hadn't left my sight. So I turned my camera on and pulled into my neighborhood. As I drove in, the houses blocked the UFO.

When I returned to open road, couldn't have been more than 25-30 seconds, it was gone from sight. It was then that a weird feeling started to kick in, almost of disappointment.

It was huge in the sky. Impossible to miss. Looked like a big black ring with a weird center type and a little tiny upside down triangle on the bottom.

As soon as I saw it, it seemed to be gone. I wish I would've shot a photo or shot some tape of the UFO but it was all over so fast.

Still hard to believe.
