I wish i had stopped and taken a picture of the trail. It was pretty awesome and kept asking outloud if anyone else was seeing it. There is a local facebook page that I will ask if someone else saw it.

I was driving. All of a sudden i saw this bright light quickly enter my field of vision on my right hand side. It was really fast. It left a trail that i could see really bright because the sun was setting. It was toward the west side.I saw that something continued to travel to the ground ahead of the trail.It looked as whatever came down landed on the hills of Vacaville or farther west.
