One item of particular note though. This OBE was in full color and crystal clear - not the normal shades of blue grey astral projection I'm used to. What's so weird about this particular OBE is that I can't remember anything after exiting the main gate of Ft. Devens and taking the first exit west bound off of route 2. My first awareness that I was OB was when I was looking down at myself from about 500 ft above my car in Clinton Mass. The view was as though I was looking at a matchbox car placed at my feet. I knew the car was mine (83 Mustang GLX Conv, top down) and I could see myself driving it. Everything was going fine until I realized that I couldn't remember seeing anything from the driver's view, or any other view for that matter, of the last 6 - 8 miles of driving. This memory should have included taking the exit, stopping at the T intersection, turning left towards Sterling (right doubles back through Shirley and on to Ayer and the other gate at the base), Going several miles up and down a few low hills and around several wide turns, stopping again at another T intersection and turning left (right goes to Sterling), bearing right at a fork in the road towards Clinton, and then driving about another mile and a half before I get to a bridge near a school or church on the right. This 'realization' cased the OB to end abruptly. I was back in my body, shivering, mild trembling and started some mild sweating. I pulled over to the side of the road just before the bridge and calmed down before continuing home. The most reassuring thing which calmed me was the simple fact that somehow, even during the OB, I knew I was still in control of my body. This was my first, and to this day, my only full color, full clarity of vision OBE.
