A Marathon, Wisconsin family jumps into the car and begins to chase a disk-shaped UFO for many miles. The event was strangely forgotten, even after round grassy areas of the lawn started to die.
I received the following account:
"My mother and two brothers were at home on a ranch in Marathon County, Wisconsin in 1967. I was 8 years old at the time. I was a very active kid and did not nap at that time of day, but this day I was inclined to nap, as well as my brother. My mother recalls the door opening and felt someone approach her from behind but does not recall much else, or at least will not admit remembering. My father owned a cheese business and normally returned home at about 5:00 PM, but this day he arrived at about 3:30 PM.
I awoke a few minutes before he arrived. He ran into the house shouting come out here look at this. A craft was disk-shaped and hovering above a tree near our house. It was about 50-60 feet from the house and the tree was about 18 feet tall. It hovered there for a while, then it began to move over our vehicle and toward our driveway.
My father told everyone to jump into the vehicle and we followed it out to the highway. Our driveway was about 1/2 mile long. When we approached the highway I could see my friend across the street and his father, they did not appear to see it. It matched our speed but was about 150 feet off the highway over a field. It seemed to disappear when we approached the forest, but when breaks in the forest or dips/valleys appeared on the terrain the craft had matched our speed and was still there.
We followed the craft to the main highway into Wausau, Wisconsin, and at that time it abruptly took a right-angle turn and took off at a slight angle upward and quickly disappeared. It all seems so surreal looking back. My mom is willing to admit the event, but my dad is not so willing. The funny thing is he was excited at the time but did not want anyone to say anything and it seemed to be forgotten. I also recall round areas in the back yard where the grass was dark and the grass eventually died where the round spot was." NU
