Joe,

My first SPF back in (2000?) met it's match at the hands of a "stupid deer".



Coming home from a cruise with my son (he was smaller then ), I was on a wonderful two lane blacktop coming through the National Forrest on a right to left sweeper at 60 mph, no biggie. (there were no shoulders for the road, just run off ditches).

A white mini van coming the other way was over the yellow line a smidge, which made me crowd the right hand side of my lane. I made the mistake of looking at the van too long, and when I looked up, a deer was charging right towards the front of the car. Already having corrected right, and concerned that I would skid on the curve if I went left, I went further right.

Pretty much avoided the deer (see photo), the drainage ditch was "interesting", put I saved it and brought the car safely to a stop on the road.

Got out.....found dead deer.....and proceeded to stomp and kick dead deer (okay, I even River Danced on it's head)

We were not injured, sounds like you are okay, and that is the important part.....I'm told...

PS My good friend Bill Wells wants me to put deer whistles on 2715, as I guess he thinks I smell like Big Foot which attracts deer....
