I’ve been expecting it, and today it finally happened. A deer jumped out of the woods right in front of my car.
I’m very proud that I managed to cause no damage to the dear or anybody else in this situation.

So you, the deer, any other cars/pedestrians and the car are fine?
This is like a rite of passage where I grew up. You may see some deer wander by your creek if you haven’t already.

Yes, I managed to slow down gracefully and safely even though I was half asleep.

I think that in most states, if someone else hits a deer with a car it is legal to collect and butcher it. Venison is delicious. Years ago I knew a man who was a vegetarian except for road-kill deer. He used their skins to make wonderful drums!

I can’t really imagine myself collecting and butchering dead deer but I do love venison.

Congrats on avoiding the deer! I have an unrelated question on the password protected posts. Is that just for people you know in real life? Or can loyal blog readers get a password? If so, my e-mail evelinanville@gmail.com. Let me know. 🙂

You did install a deer alert whistle, rather than a deer call, right? 🙂
BTW, this sort of thing is fairly common:
