COMMENTS:	He often goes to his son's property near Southaven, MI, on the shoreline of Lake MI. It was a Saturday evening on Labor Day weekend. He got there in late evening, and had been there about an hour, sitting on the front porch looking out at the lake. It was dark, when all of a sudden it got real light all around. He wondered how it could get so light, so he looked up and saw a giant oblong shape poking through the clouds, all lit up on the bottom with real bright light. It was hovering or moving really slow, and it caught the hole in the clouds as it floated by. He looked hard at it and could see the silhouette of the sides, football field size object, but black around the edges. It was all lit up underneath and he could see the body along the edge. Just the white light, no sound. He doesn’t know if the object turned its light on because of the hole in the clouds, or whether it was already lit up and showed through the gap in the clouds. But when it disappeared, he could no longer see any sign of it through the cloud cover. His adult son was there too, but couldn’t see it because he was in a porch swing with a top on it. There is a nuke plant 3 miles due N along edge of lake.
