The road I was driving on led straight west to Lake Michigan before turning north. At the point where the road turns north, there is a short-term increase in altitude, which allows you to quickly see Lake Michigan. I was about 3/4 mile east of Lake Michigan, it was about 9am. 

I saw a bronze disc rising out of the water about 1.6 km west of the beach access area in St. Joseph, Michigan. 

This disk was HUGE. A huge amount of water could be seen falling out of it. During the approval, the disk was facing the coastline. I mean, it was like looking at the face of the block. Then the disk turned 90 degrees. 

Very similar to the edge of the block. In the middle of the rotation, a flash of sunlight was reflected. The part consisted of several spherical structures on the surface, equidistant from the center. To this fact, I would add that the geometric proportions of this craft were similar to a quarter. It was very thin compared to its diameter. 

After passing 90 degrees (now looking at the edge), the ship hovered for a second, like a black line in the sky, then accelerated approximately to the north at a very high speed, it disappeared after 2 seconds. The whole event lasted 8-10 seconds.

Summary:  The road I was on headed due west towards Lake Michigan before turning north. At the point in which the road turns north, there is a brief elevation increase that allows for a quick view of Lake Michigan. I was about 3/4 mile east of Lake Michigan, it was approximately 9am. I saw a bronze disc rising from the water about 1 mile west of the beach access area of St. Joseph, MI. This disc was HUGE. Massive amounts of water could be seen falling from it. The disc was facing the shoreline during it’s assent. By this I mean, it was like looking at the face of a quarter. The disc then rotated 90 deg. Much like looking at the edge of a quarter. Mid-way through the rotation, a flash of sunlight reflected. The detail was several spherical structures on the surface, equal distant from the center. To this fact I would add, that the geometric proportions of this craft were similar to a quarter. It was very thin as compared to it’s diameter. After completing the 90 deg. rotation, (now looking at the edge) the craft hovered for a second looking like a black line in the sky, then accelerated roughly due north at a very high rate of speed, it was gone in 2 sec. The whole event was over in 8-10 seconds.
