US Military Jet or Drone Sighting South Orange County CA April 7, 2013

The sky over my home is noisesome -if that's a word?- with small planes and helicopters, I don't believe the small planes to be military (not sure about the gray ones though), the helicopters I believe are possibly police helicopters. I have to say I am frustrated with the noise and lack of privacy. So, I look up often.
Yesterday (4-7-13), I did not notice chemtrails which is a nice break since they are often clouding up the blue sky, but I looked up from the noise of a helicopter or plane I think, and happened to notice another jet or drone jet military plane. It was up high so I don't think I heard the noise of it flying over (headed east from the west coast). I saw it after it had just flown past the homes in my area. Though it was high up and further ahead, I believe it had the missals on it as I have noticed before I could be wrong. I have noticed other p
 It appeared to be the same as the ones I saw previously. The jet is very thin appearing from below, not very small though and not like the jet bombers - these are thin with wings and tail pointing backwards. Which is why I believe these jets to possibly be drones or if not this type that I have seen flying nearby seem to be military.

Do I, let me rephrase that, does anybody like this flying over your family? Does anybody else see this? Comments welcomed from Orange County, CA viewers or abroad.

Military Jets or Drones? and Planes Spotted in South Orange County, CA March 18, 2013

While walking home in the afternoon there high above me -yet low enough to see- was a military type jet. The slanted back wings and tail and armed with two missles or bombs (I think) gave it away. It looked very narrow that I wondered if it were a drone - a Reaper drone since drones have been in the news lately. I saw it a couple times unless there was more than one - the jets were flying east inland. I saw another more like a plane, I think this plane was white and was flying fairly high. There were also circling planes that looked similar to small charter planes I think they were gray, I saw three at one time. One did look like a white charter plane that I saw at a lower level. The sound of planes or jets was even heard up until about 11:30pm.

I don't like not knowing what these small planes or jets are doing and why they are flying over people and homes. Are there drones flying around? Are there planes looking down on us? Possibly just military practices... still I don't like it.

I noticed here in mid south Orange County, CA -a little inland- there is less sightings of chemtrails in the sky compared to how often I have seen them in the coastal region of OC especially the city of San Clemente, CA which borders Camp Pendleton's Marine base. Lately though, there has been white chemtrails overhead; the old unwanted familiar ugly white trails covering up the gorgeous OC skies... errr. Leave the sky alone.


They may have just been military jets (I do not know a lot about types of military aircrafts... but these are a couple images of possible jet drones I saw...
USAF MQ-9 Reaper Drone.. This looks more like what I saw. Photo from: pixstel.com Read more about it here.

This isn't a good video but I'm posting it anyway this is just one of the planes (not the jets/Reapers) 3 second video, use full screen. These planes and jets were in the same area as this video.

Drive Through South Orange County, California Photos

Drive through photographs of Southern California in South Orange County. Hope you enjoy the virtual tour of San Clemente, Capistrano Beach, and Dana Point, California. These cities are located just north of San Diego County and Camp Pendleton. They are the beach cities in the southern part of Orange County. They have the best weather in all of Orange County, and quite possibly in all of California, the west coast and even Worldwide, with year round weather being mostly sunny, little showers, and temperatures mid-day around 70 degrees Fahrenheit most of the year. The more inland you go the higher the degree temperature on hot summer days into the 80s-90s. Usually temperatures drop back down within days though, and ocean breezes and beach fun help ease hot weather. San Clemente usually remains the coolest of cities on the coast, due to it's "June Gloom" summer marine fog layer that moves inland and dissipates in the hills. It has been quoted that San Clemente is the "World's best climate".

Yellow in the Ocean? T Street Beach San Clemente, California- Orange County

Yesterday was a gorgeous beach day in San Clemente, CA. At T-Street Beach the water was warm and shallow enough to walk out swim and boogie board. Only a couple cautions, warm water also brought a string ray that may have stung someone earlier in the day where we were now splashing, later there was some concern of rip currents. But the spotted yellow flag was not the only yellow spotted at the beach. The biggest concern in my opinion was the bright yellow we could see first from the cliff above T-Street. The yellow colored water streaked moving south from the San Clemente Pier and south of T-Street. People swam and splashed anyway. After a few hours the yellow was finally pushed south and spread and you could no longer see notice it. There are piles and piles of a long seaweed bed that is stretched across the coastline making the ocean blue somewhat brown. Is this related to the yellow, was this yellow dumped into our water? This yellow as bright as paint, what was it? Glad there are showers at the beach.

Comments welcomed.
