Hi,
I see that the sight hasn't been updated recently, but I would like to throw my 2 cents in. I have seen the light a few times. I don't feel like it's spooky, but it can be playful at times. The first time I saw it, it was coming from behind us, were the main road is, it was small and bright, so I passed it off as being headlights, except it stayed there for quite some time as we drove down the road. Of course it went away before it got close. Shortly after that we saw it in front of us, but this time it was a dim glow, pale green in color, and about the size of a basketball. It came at us very fast and whizzed right over the hood and front windshield. At the front windshield I would say it was about the size of a good size pumpkin and still a dim green misty glow, it didn't look like a lantern or anything. It stayed about 30 feet behind us after that, even when we got out to look at it, we walked towards it and it maiantained its distance, and was approximately 10 feet off the ground. We turned around at the end of the road and it flew back over us on the way out and stayed behind us the whole way back to the main road. That was my first trip. My last trip was made with a lot of friends in two car we drove down the road all the way to the railroad tracks. We stopped and got out, we had flashlights and kept our car headlights on, it was a fairly clear night, and I brought along my camera. Only two pictures came out of the 27 exposure roll, and the two that came our have some strange mist floating about, that I cannot remember being there. We say "Saratoga" when we refer to the road, we never knew the name of it, but it is a very beautiful place to be, day or night, and I don't think there is anything to be afraid of, except a playful ball of light, and maybe another car coming up the road in the opposite direction of you. I haven't been there in a while and don't know what it looks like now, but we have a band here in Port Arthur that plans on having a tour of the road soon and play music, I'll make sure and bring my camera and video tape and take what pictures I can for you.
Claire
