About Me

My photo
Shanksow
Lubbock, Texas, United States
I have been a life long fanatic for aviation and space related subjects since my parents took me out to a airshow when I was four or five years old. Solo in a Cessna 150/152 in college, but never was able to get my Private Pilot's license. Love to fly whenever I get a chance to. Until recently, I was into radio control model airplanes. Had to sell them off due to current fincial times. As for UFOS, I have seen them since the 7th grade. But I haven't witness any more since I turned 30 something - or paid attention enough to see them I should say.

Betty Hill's Second Encounter

Betty Hill's Second Encounter

Betty Hill's Second UFO Encounter

After the Death of Barney Hill, Betty was returning home one night from visiting his grave and she looked up into the night time sky to see a light getting bigger and bigger.  

For more details, please read the excellant book CAPTURED! by Stanton T. Friedman, MSc., and Kathleen Marden.  This particular encounter one must read directly. 

As for the drawing itself, it is done in pencil in a regualr size 8 x 11 size sketchbook.  I have been meeaning to post this for months now and finally got around to scanning it and uploading it to the blog on May 29, 2009.
