The space craft seemed to hover above the ground, rather than touch fully.
Joe described the craft to be 12 feet in height by 20 feet diam. There were no windows or seams on the build either, just a strange electrical hum.

One being stepped forward and gestured toward a jug made of similar chrome like material as the space craft.
Joe took that as a request for water, so he happily filled their jug up inside their home and returned it back to the craft.

Upon looking inside the #UFO, it appeared that one of the spacemen was frying food on a flameless grill.
When Joe gestured toward the cooking Alien, one brought him 4 cakes to try.
He stated they tasted similar to cardboard but saved the remaining.

The visit lasted 5 mins till the hatch snapped shut, leaving not even a seam on the shiny outer shell & took off so fast a blast of air caused the nearby trees to bow.
There were several other #UFO reports in the same area for the next month.

The Space cakes Joe received from the Alien beings were later sent to be analyzed at a lab.
But after the 1st scientist fell ill & was hospitalized, it was hard to find a lab that was willing to undertake the media and public frenzy this story was causing.
