That is soooooooo scary..... I'm happy to hear that your friend's husband wasn't hurt worse -- Sending many healing thoughts & prayers his way.

About a month ago, my husband and I were riding in a countryish, woodsy area. I was ?? approximately 1/8 - 1/16th mile behind him, when I noticed a deer passing right in front of my him , (right to left). (The deer was about 1/2 football field (?) in front of him)...

He didn't even notice the deer because he was looking in his mirror trying to see where I was --- IT HAPPENED SO QUICKLY!

MAKE SOME NOISE ONCE IN A WHILE
I always get very sad when I see deer (and other wild animals) in city/towns, walking on pavement. This WAS their home at one time.....it's just the way it is, I know. Still, it makes me sad!

Have a peaceful evening,
