They were naturally pretty rational people, I guess you could say. So I think they would have just assumed that I was like, you know, smoking too much weed or whatever or whatnot. I don't think they would have believed me at all. After that happened, I was trying to rack my head about like what that could have been besides, you know, a UFO. And I thought it could have been a helicopter.

But I could tell that it was a couple hundred feet off the ground. And normally, you know, I live in the Bay Area in Oakland, and there's police helicopters flying around all the time, and those fly pretty high up in the air. But you can still hear the chopper blades, you know, slicing through the air. And I'd imagine that if a helicopter is flying, pretty low to the ground.

It would be still disturbing the wind around us. And I recall just no sound coming out of the craft other than just the resonant frequency that it was emitting. There's no sort of sound that it was jet propulsion or whatever. In a weird way, I just remember how silent everything else was around us. There was no sound of coyotes howling or any sort of disturbances to the nature around us.

It was a pretty run-down campsite, so it didn't have any really amenities. It barely had plumbing, just some outhouses. So there's no machinery around there or construction happening. There's nothing that could actually really produce... a noise like that, let alone a noise at that scale.

And that's why I was so entranced when I first woke up to see this craft overhead, was because even in my half-asleep, half-awake stupor, I knew that what it was was not an organic thing. It wasn't of planet Earth. There's no way it could have been a helicopter. It was this complete otherworldly entity that was present in our space.

I had just never heard any sort of noise like that ever in my lifetime up until that point. It just had the characteristics of nothing that I'd ever heard of. I'll never forget that noise. It's hard to describe, but I'll never forget that feeling of witnessing something that was just completely beyond the scope of my understanding, even now and as an adult, let alone as a 16-year-old kid.

After that, I had a pretty, you know, continuing on my pretty normal high school experience. My parents were always big about me getting into, you know, higher education. So I went to college in the central coast of California. I got an engineering degree, graduated, met my wife there. You know, pretty run-of-the-mill experience for a young, upwardly mobile person, I guess.
