    Glad no one was hurt. It was a nice change of pace, to see the two older brothers interacting together on a road trip. Too bad it was for a bad reason. Shout out to the tow truck driver that went out of his way to help Seth and Mackenzie.

    Maybe Seth and Kenzie can get some time this fall to do some deer hunting together. They seem to naturally attract them. Glad everyone is okay, chalk it up as an adventure. Years ago, I hit a deer while returning home from work on my motorcycle. I wasn't hurt, but the trooper had to dispatch the deer (it wound up in the freezer). Have a blessed week and stay safe.

    A blessing everyone is hunky dory. Deers are the worst enemy of moving vehicles. Amazed of how little damage was done. Today’s vehicles would be totaled. Now I’m hungry. Going to go eat some chicken wings and a venison steak. Again, glad everyone is okay!

    I had a similar experience. I was picking up my brother from camp about an hour from Saskatoon. As I was passing an oncoming car someone threw a beer bottle from the other car. It punctured the radiator. (My father came with an uncle to pick us up.) They squeezed the tube shut on the radiator. Then they loosened the radiator cap. The leak was stopped. It was evening so it was cool. It was not a deer but a beer bottle. . . . You will now have a story to tell your grandchildren.

    Here is a thought that could benefit the whole family. It may take time time to think if it is worth it. Buy a wrecker at a auction. Could be used to retrieve a family vehicle,could pull out tractor stuck in mud that has to be lifted and pulled at same time. You have trucks and a trailer, but when coming to hoisting and pulling at same time,not very functionable. Also could be used as a side business for one of your sons (be there own boss) Oh,by the way makes a good tool for lifting on something as you work on a piece of equipment and not tie up the large excavator. Winch & boom from the wrecker together perform many good tasks. All in one universal equipment. Hop in and go with stocked tools. Speed up the system with less down time and having to hook up a trailer.

    Thankfully, the deer wasn't jumping at the point of contact or else they would have had an extra passenger in their front seat.
    It's always a good idea to put Deer Crash Bars N Grills on our trucks. *They'll save alot of truck damage and more importantly lives.*

They just need a motor vehicle, No scope required. They will hit that sucker dead on. You should feel blessed Rhonda that there are no Moose in southern Michigan! What a great episode.
