Well, AJ, I know I spoke about this on the site before and it is probably somewhere around here. Anyway, yes, it did come from the direction of Lake Michigan (I even made the joke that it came from SS's house). And besides the lights along the sides of it, it also had a searchlight on the front of it that seemed to be scanning the land back and forth.
This was about 2 in the morning and I was out in the backyard letting Anubis out. Unfortunately, I didn't have my camera with me and I was frozen to the spot I was standing on - basically in disbelief at what I was seeing. The thing eventually got to my yard and began flying parallel with it. The searchlight barely missed where I was standing. I always wondered what would have happened if I would have actually been in the spotlight. But the thing was so low, there was NO mistaking what I was seeing. I could almost see in it's windows! Just kidding - there were no windows that I saw. I really wish I had had my camera with me!
