On the way to a meeting about seventy five miles away this evening I just narrowly avoided hitting two deer. Recovering from the near miss and doing the speed limit a car ran a stop sign and went sailing across a major highway in front of me. This was about a mile further down the road. If I had not lost some momentum in the swerve for the deer chances are one of us would have hit the other broadside. I estimated less than two seconds earlier and It would have occured. It was pretty close and the deer perhaps saved me instead tonite.
