Wild Rose Encounters - Pt. 1
Sighting #1 - with Bill
Bill’s written testimony of his encounter:
I was about 44 years old when I had this experience and am 70 now.
The encounter was a sighting and landing.
It was 8:30-ish in the evening Nov. 27 1995 on a Sunday night... late fall, to the best of my knowledge and memory. I'm unsure as to the length of the encounter. It seemed like half hour or more but I'm not sure. It took place on H/W 22, approx. 3 miles North of Wild Rose, Waushara Co. The direction was facing South.
There were no other witnesses and it was not documented. I was heading home from deer camp. I felt anxious, excited but had no fear. There was no sound. I couldn't believe my eyes and even pinched myself hard to make sure I was awake and what I was seeing was exactly what I was seeing. I did not take any photos or documentation. I did not have any physical effects except excitement. I have not changed my view of what happened in any way.
I was driving East on Co. A approaching a stop sign on H/W 22. I noticed a bright light on the North horizon realizing it was not the North Star. I came to the stop sign and saw a bright light to the East beyond a hedge row of trees. My first thought was it might be the DNR looking for poachers. I continued to watch as I turned South onto H/W 22. After approximately a half-mile, a very bright white light came over the car. I stopped the car and noticed the light was so bright I could see the dust particles in the car thru the tinted sun roof. I also noticed the light on the hood of the car was so intense I could see thru the paint to the metal and could see the buff marks under the paint. I opened the driver's door to see what the light was from. As soon as the door opened, the light disappeared. The car was off but I do not remember shutting it off. Within seconds, the light came back over the field, approx. 200 yd. from the road. I then saw a saucer shaped UFO landing in the field. There was no sound. As it got closer to the ground I noticed 3 legs of a landing gear rotating down and outward with a very bright lights on the landing pads. I estimated the UFO was 150 feet across and 40 feet high. On the top was a dome shaped amber light, approx. 12 feet across. Surrounding the big dome amber light were 5 smaller lights which were red, white, green, blue and yellow. Below those lights were vertical windows. From my location, with binoculars, I could see in the windows but the angle only allowed me to see thru the top of the openings. It looked like stainless steel rooms similar to a hospital emergency room. The surface covering had a light grey metal look but it looked pliable, no seams.
I waited, hoping I would see a being of some sort but I did not. I rushed home and on the way, approx. a mile from the site, I saw fog in a field that had lights in it and appeared like a cloud. I assumed they were smaller UFOs heading the direction of the main ship. I continued home to get my wife to return to the site. 10 minutes later we returned and everything was gone.
Sighting #2 - with both Bill and Cherie.
It was a sighting, which took place sometime around April 19, 1996, on Highway 22, 1 mile North of Wild Rose Wisconsin, Waushara County, facing South. It was a husband and wife encounter and there were no other witnesses. It was not documented.
Cherie’s written testimony of the encounter:
We were driving home from Father's house. We saw a large cigar shaped UFO crossing the road above us. Coming in from 10 o'clock position, exiting at 4 o'clock... There was no sound. No missing time. It took just 10 or so seconds for it to cross the road. We were surprised, excited, anxious, confused. We did not gather evidence or take photos. The encounter did affect our life as it was the second UFO we saw on the same highway . Our view of what happened has not changed at all since the incident.
My husband was on a motorcycle in front of me and I was in a car. The UFO crossed the road above us, as described, and went directly into the ground out in the field. There was no crash, no fire, no smoke, do dust, no evidence of a crash, but we watched it go into the ground. We drove around the area looking for some kind of evidence but could not find anything. But without a doubt, we saw this happen.
