Amber glowing orb appeared in night sky of Longview, WA, witnessed by many during Go 4th Celebration.

During our city fireworks display, a amber glowing "orb" appeared over tree tops and seemed to float, eventually becoming smaller as if it had gone higher. I was with my adult children, sitting in a group of thousands of people and you could see people in the crowd noticing and pointing to the object.

Initially, is resembled a firework "fall out" but it never dimmed like a burning object would of. About an hour later, at my home 3 blocks from park where first sighting took place, I was watching neighborhood fireworks and suddenly the same type of glowing orb appeared in the sky. Once again, it just floated as if it was riding an air current. It floated around this area for about 15 mins until it got high enough or far enough that it looked smaller. It didn't flash or strobe. The light was not bright it looked liked the amber glow of a flame. There was not any noise associated with it. The night sky was clear and star filled. There was enou! gh pause between fireworks that the sky was not smoke filled. When I spoke to my friend this morning, the first words out of her mouth was did you see the UFO?" Her family witnessed the same glowing orbs that I did, at the same times and saw an additional one around 01:00.
