Deer Diary

Due to high demand for pictures of da wife's wrecked vehicle (ok 2 people asked, but for this blog that counts as HIGH), so I've decided to post them here. (I also think she'll be posting something either tonight or tomorrow, so if you're a reader, stay tuned.)


Boy you shoulda seen the doe!
Juusssst Kidding!
That's a left over from a Halloween event. The REAL photos are below.


This is the front right bumper clearly needing replacement.


Just to the right of the picture above, you can see how the impact tore through the outer shell of the bumper. So all in all not THAT bad compared to the things it could have been. Fortunately she had just recently read a deer safety article that stressed NOT swerving to avoid, since that is the biggest danger. I'm just glad everyone (except maybe the deer - though I didn't see a body when we went to go retrieve her license plate that got torn off in the impact) is ok. The insurance company said that our "insurance shouldn't go up". *shouldn't*... why am I suddenly concerned that they did NOT say *wouldn't*??
"Yeah Bob. I told the saps that it shouldn't go up. But you and I KNOW it'll be higher! LOLOLOL"
*grumble*


And just to be a sad impersonation of JamesF... a sunset shot



With a FAR inferior camera and photographer.
But working within the same awe inspiring world.


***UPDATE:
Yes, we found the license plate. As well as what appeared to be the remains of 5 or 6 other "victims" in a stretch no longer then 100 feet. And that was just on one side of the road. Definitely a high traffic area. Perhaps they need a sign... like "WARNING: suicidal deer run through here. Stay Alert!"
