Joining The Ranks Of Other PA Drivers



Most of you I believe are familiar with how populated the deer are here in PA. If not, I am sure you have heard me talk about them. Well I have officially joined the ranks of thousands of other PA drivers. Tuesday night while driving home on Margaret Road after work I hit my first deer. Of course with it being January the road conditions were not good. I saw the first one way out in front & it got safely up the hill . As I kept going here came the other out of nowhere. Why do they do this? It had plenty of time to get across. My first thought (well maybe you don't want to know the first) great I am pregnant, on a back windy road, in winter weather & Steve is sleeping to get ready for the night shift. So I finally get to safe place to pull off and survey the damage. I was totally shocked that there was no damage to my car. Thank goodness for the big honking bumper on my Explorer. I guess I should be grateful we have been here for awhile and this has just happened.

Hopefully, this is not a sign of things to come.
