Flippin' Deer!
Broad daylight, busy street, two deer. Yep, one hit me!!! Nice smack in the drivers side door where the cladding is and just above. Darn thing got up and continued running towards the ravine.
I am glad I wasn't driving my car or I think I would have gotten it right in the window!
Damn, that is the biggest "door ding" I have now.

It was somewhat a surprise. Where it happened is on a 4 lane busy street that is between a quarry and a large wooded park. The deer came up the hill from one side and darted into the street and then across and down into the other side where the ravine/creek or whatever you call it is.
So besides looking at traffic, a parking lot full of cars where the local police like to radar from, then two deer come out and voila! Crunch time. I did have to find a place to pull over and get some new legs as mine felt like over cooked noodles.
I am leaving for New Mexico today and will have to have it looked at when I get back. I am thinking that the drivers door is much easier to replace or fix than behind the passenger door.
