I'm in Houston and I've noticed on and off over at least the last two

typically in the evenings.
By 8pm, it's definitely dark out so visual observation of
something on the ground doesn't seem likely. I've always noticed it in
the late afternoons and into the early evening, but that doesn't mean it
hasn't been operating at other parts of the day.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but am curious if anyone might have any
thoughts as to what's going on.

Gary, this story reminds me of a situation I encountered many years
ago.I dont make any claim that these two stories are related but they
do seem similar.
Years ago I was working for a small (At the time) commuter airline.One
of my regular layovers was in Kingman Arizona.At that time Kingman was
not much more than a truckstop/ small retirement community.Tim Mcvie's
(SP?) bombing of the federal building in Ok city changed all that.As
you can recall, he lived in Kingman while he was planning the bombing.
For the next several months the only people we hauled in and out of
Kingman were Feds and reporters.What was interesting was that the feds
kept a surveillance plane up all night long for several months after
the bombing.
With Kingman being such a small quiet town in the middle of the desert,
you could see and hear the plane from anywhere in the city.I heard it
from my hotel room all night long and I could ussually spot it with a
quick glance out the window.It leads one to wonder who would be
conducting any kind of criminal activity when they KNOW they are being
watched.
So in conclusion, I think there is a posibility this could be
surveillance.
Fly Safe,
