One night, in the early 80's, I was up late (as usual), playing on my computer. I was about 12 at the time. I used to stay up and play games all the time. I guess it was around 2:00 am. Mom and dad were asleep. I was into my game when I noticed the dog kept barking. He was tied up in the back yard. He barked alot so I ignored it. But Sydney my Australian Shepard sounded spooked, different in some way, and this made me curious. I know my pet as most of you all know yours, and something wasn't right with Sydney. He was barking like someone (he didnt know) was outside messing around. Well I didn't want to wake my parents up cause they had to work. So I looked out the window and saw that a thick fog was hanging in the air. I couldn't make too much out, because a tree by my window obscured my view. I thought that maybe someone was trying to steal something. I started to go outside to check it out when Sydney really sounded scared. This made me scared, so I ran to the kitchen and got a steak knife out of the drawer. I ran to the outside door and turned on the porch light. I opened the door and yelled, "What is it boy"? He just kept on barking and whimpering. I knew I had to check on him, "maybe he's hurt" I thought. I then summoned up my courage and walked toward him, holding the steak knife straight out in front of me. I could see as I approached him that he was stretched all the way to the end of his chain, straining to get loose. He was looking out in the cow pasture that is behind our house. (We have about 120 acres) I called to him again, "Sydney what is it boy!!!??" I had tingles all over, like something was about to jump out at me. I looked in the direction where he was looking and I saw a mass of thick fog. My eyes were getting use to the dark, and it was then I saw something through the fog....... about 100 yards away or less I could see a shape sitting in the field. I was a pyramid. At least from what I could tell. I appeared to be sitting on the ground or barely over it. This shape in my estimation, appeared to be around 20ft. high. It made no noise that I could hear, and had no lights. It looked to be metallic and I could see light from a distant street light shining off of it. It didn't move..... but boy I did! Thoughts of being abducted by aliens entered my head! I untied the dog and we both ran to the house! I ran to my room and turned off the lights and looked out the window, but couldn't see anything. Needless to say, Sydney slept with me that night. In the morning I walked out into the field about where I saw this thing, but found nothing. I live about 2 miles from Ft. Knox and as I look back on it now we may have seen an experimental craft from the army or maybe, just maybe we saw a UFO. I will never know. I have thought back many many times, that I should have walked out to it, to get a better look. I wish I had. I was too scared to then. Sydney saw it, and I saw it. What it was, I'll never know. But one things for sure, there was something in the field that night! <img src="/metal/html/shocked.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":shock">
