OT: UFO

So, apparently a UFO landed in Powell County, in a soybean field near Clay City.

I was headed to get some tacos a couple of nights ago and saw this:


I drove back the next day and saw this:


I'm thinking someone got bored.

Probably some Buckeyes trying to sneak into the Red River Gorge and hike.

I’ve seen old satellite tv dishes used to make goldfish ponds, fountains, a sand box, and even the roof for a tower on a kids swing set. But that is my first flying (or just sitting) saucer.

As a side note; I did enjoy watching the original “Lost In Space” as a kid.

Now that you mention it, it is actually sitting in the Red River flood plain. That tree-line behind it is the bank of the Red River.

If you have Netflix, check out the new series on there. Pretty good (the robot is MUCH better).

When you're driving anywhere near Roswell, NM those kind of sights are all over the place.
