It was the opening of the gun deer season yesterday and my mom got her first deer. This one dented up the fender pretty good. The car survived. The deer didn't.
I think it's pretty good that with all the deer around someone can drive regularly for 50+ years before hitting one. I know that most of the time it's not a preventable accident - my dad had hit deer on two occasions while traveling freeway speeds. Take a drive up north at night if you want to see a lot of deer close to the road. It is a dangerous situation.
My oldest son received his driver's license Friday with only one deduction on the test. He probably thinks it's a big moment in his life, and it is, but it's also a major milestone for me. My son, behind the wheel of a machine capable of taking him places he never dreamed possible, or using it for destructive purposes, he is now old enough to choose. I have every confidence in him to choose the right path. I am proud to call him my son. He is a good reflection on his teachers, his friends and his parents, as is his brother.
Watch out for the deer!
