Details of Incident:
It's been awhile since I've given a lot of thought to what I saw that night. I think it was mid
November. I was headed home from Appleton with some equipment to be repaired in the back of my
pick-up truck. From Hwy. 26 in Juneau, I jogged over to Hwy. M and headed south towards
Watertown, where I lived at the time. It was pretty late at night, somewhere between 11pm and
1am; and IT WAS FOGGY...thick like soup. I remember thinking to myself that this would be the
kind of night to have some weird stuff go on. As I'm traveling south on M, I remember crossing
the tracks by Clyman Jct. and seeing a flashing light down the road aways. Kept seeing it from
hilltops, thinking it was kinda late at night for a tractor in the fields (fall harvest time).
As I got closer to it, I realized it was above the fields, on the east side of Hwy. M, about
20-30 yards from the road, and maybe 20-30 feet up. I'm guessing it was about 3 feet or so in
diameter and covered with white flashing lights, like strobes. I slowed down to a crawl as I
got "next" to it, and remembered watching those lights and realizing as fast as they were
flashing, they were all going off one at a time. They were really bright, and kinda reminded me
of the New Years ball in New York. I started to get a freaky feeling and started to move on,
and was met head on by another pick-up truck headed north. I didn't see his lights until he was
practically right in front of me,and his tail lights disappeared in the fog right away, but I
could see the "Flashing Orb" very clearly yet. I don't know if the other truck stopped or not,
and didn't stick around. I do recall looking for the next road sign and seeing the Cty. JM
ahead sign right away. A couple of days later I called the Dodge County Sherrifs Dept. and
asked if anyone had reported strange lights in that area at that time. Whoever it was said no,
and dismissed it as radio tower lights, which there are some of in that area. I went back to the
area during the day, and saw no farms or buildings in the area, and the radio towers are over
some hills to the southeast of the sight. There was a field of standing corn, on a slight hill,
but no trees in the area of the flashing orb. I'm not sure if the other vehicle saw it or not.
I've only told a few people about this; my sister and brother-in-law thought I was nuts, and
the last person I told said I should report it, and now I have.
