ALBANY, Ore. (AP) - A couple in a rural area east of Albany claim they saw what appeared to be UFOs and they want to know if anybody else saw the same thing.
     
Raye Laufer and her husband, Derral, say they were smoking in their forested back yard last month in the Cascade Range foothills. That's when they saw two long, silver, bullet-shaped objects flying side-by-side across the sky.
     
The couple says that neither object had lights or made a sound before they split up, with one heading east and the other toward the northeast.
     
The Laufers say they next saw what appeared to be a large orb silently glowing red and orange floating above treetops before it hovered over their home and then headed north.
     
Raye Laufer says she filed a report with the National UFO Reporting Center, which encouraged her to ask whether anybody else saw the objects.
