NamePatricia M
Experience Level3/5
RemarksOn vacation in Bonita Beach, FL staying in a condo on the Gulf of Mexico. I was sitting here on the veranda in the dark at 2 AM. This ball of fire came straight down from the sky and landed in the water. It was hard to tell how far out it was but it was large and I have never witnessed anything like this in my lifetime!
