Even folk that slow down will hit one on occasion. <br /><br />Sorry - bet that ruined your day...<br /><br />I have story about a turtle I may write about on my blog someday.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00029307154132762913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1878331128969051364.post-46698688312357511682009-09-18T04:08:23.291-05:002009-09-18T04:08:23.291-05:00Thank you all, and I hope I never hit another!!!Thank you all, and I hope I never hit another!!!City girl turned Country Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13136747291306184964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1878331128969051364.post-20629496417797664442009-09-18T01:50:26.759-05:002009-09-18T01:50:26.759-05:00I am so sorry!

I have never hit a deer, which is surprising, considering they are all over here, I've been pretty lucky. <br />I would be devastated if I hit a deer or anything!

Well, about a half mile down the road there she sat with the front light now out of her van. I felt so sorry for her.<br />Glad that it did not suffer to long and that you and your vehicle were ok.<br />God blessSharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17017522696998830615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1878331128969051364.post-54469422863095858172009-09-17T07:12:01.213-05:002009-09-17T07:12:01.213-05:00Ugh...

I hit one once - it slid on the highway under my truck - I was pulling a trailer with a horse in it so wasn't stopping fast. Never found it - must have slid right underneath. My husband has hit several. Glad it was out of its misery in short order.Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18138747690602990437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1878331128969051364.post-40094347976352734292009-09-17T05:18:17.277-05:002009-09-17T05:18:17.277-05:00Bummer.

I've hit smaller things, but never anything that large.<br /><br />And since I have a mini soapbox, let me just say: People! Contain your pets! Your heart will be broken when you find it squooshed on the side of the road!Leah Fryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18158981037468411293noreply@blogger.com
