Dear Sirs,
On December 31st, at around midnight, I witnessed about a dozen glowing, orange orbs moving over Rainier, Washington. Do you by any chance know what these were? It has been driving me crazy since the 31st. If you know of anything these might have been, I would appreciate an answer. Thank you for your help in this matter.

I recently moved to the area and interested in learning to fly single engine plane's. Could you direct me in the right direction?

I am a plastics and composites engineer working with the major aircraft manufacturers in the Pacific Northwest.
