The mystery is solved, they reappeared tonight and we traced them to a neighbor
who loves to send lanterns aloft from his backyard. He has been doing this off
and on for several years, so this explains "U.F.O activity" as documented on
the web for Maricopa and Casa Grande for several years!
Big orange lanterns sent aloft tonight, how appropriate....
Happy Halloween everyone!

Good friends are like stars. You don't always
see them, but you always know they are there.
