2 unmoving round objects side my side like eyes straight overhead above the fiew clouds that drifted under them.

They did not move and I dont remember even looking at them the second time. they were white as the clouds but not metalic shining. I was very young like about only 4 years old at the time and I am 55 now this was one of the two times I was a wittness of UFOs.

These objects did not move enough for me to notice. They were not like the weather balloons that were prevalant during those days but because these were right over head and not like the side view that the weather baloons were. None of the characteristics below fit the objects that I observed. We were poor people that had to raise as much food as we could in the summer months to have enough food for the cold winters we have here.

Mom was a mother of 8 and practically alone in her indever to raise us. So we spent a lot of time in the large gardens we had at that time. For the most part we ignored the objects and went back to our task of hoeing the strawberry plants growing in that particular garden plot.
