On this date my Mother and cousin and I were traveling west on the interstate40 ,between albuquerque and the lava fields outside acoma. as we were traveling My cousin and I observed a light on the horizone. It appeared stationary but was getting brighter.As time went by the light we realized was moving toward us going east. By this time my Mother also saw it and thought it was a plane that was going to land on the freeway because of trouble. My Mother pulled the car over to the side of the road stopped the car and turned off the engine. As it got closer instead of one bright light there were 4 and it was almost above us. We got out of the car and there was no noise at all no crash nothing it just disappeared.We also realized that the nearest landing strip was approp.90 miles away. Then the light just shot off in a northerly direction. that was the first of many unexplainable lights I saw in the sky. My family is from Az and as kids and later as young adults we would through a sleeping bag down and fall asleep watching ufos.
