Two teenage youths riding bikes near Bloomingdale observed a bright light in the sky that materialized as a cup or bowl-shaped object hovering 50-60 feet off the ground, 100-200 yards from the road, visible for about one minute.

“The boys said they observed an object in a field near a swamp, hovering in the air. They said it was 100 feet long and from 100 to 200 yards from the road. The object was shaped like "two cups or bowls put together," and about as large as a football field in height. It was about 50 to 60 feet off the ground.”
