    Happened just before 3 AM this morning, on my way to get loaded...too dark for pics then, though, so I swung by the scene on my way home.

    You'd think these critters would learn to stay out of my way....:biggrin_2559:

    As soon as I got it home, I straightened it out as best I could....didn't want to attract TOO much attention

    Around my neck of the woods hitting a Deer would put you on the side of the road calling a wrecker. We call them Muleys.
