Somersault into discovering your talent

I’m fascinated by other people’s talents and skills. Musicians, novelists, dancers ... anyone who has a specific ability that they’ve honed and perfected.

Red Phone: ‘UFO’ could be a balloon

"On Sunday night, Oct. 9 about 11:30 p.m. I was sitting on my front porch off Carmel between Fourth and Fifth streets. While on the phone with a friend, I saw in the sky a reddish glowing sphere.

It was a quiet night and I didn't hear any noise coming from the object. It was about 300 to 400 feet in the sky. I ran inside to get my mom and dad to check it out. My dad thought it was weird looking too. And as soon as we watched it for a few more moments, the object started to lift further into the sky and it started to 'sail' southeast still glowing red. I couldn't believe my eyes. Just wanted to get a response. Did anyone else in Gilroy see this? Please advise."
