Thanks. It still brings tears to my eyes. It was so awful.

There was only one, as we had to go home that way and saw it. But, yes, there are usually many more when one is to be seen. Same with turkeys, which have done very well out here since being introduced. There've been many many times I've just come to a complete stop in the road for a family to pass.

It really made us aware, again, how heavy we are while towing. Ever since we got the MS, I think twice about pulling out in front of an 18-wheeler, or even a large truck. I know they don't have the stopping capacity a car does. (However, we would not have missed that deer yesterday even in a car.) And I see cars weaving and cutting in front of big vehicles all the time. Makes me want to smack them.
