Imagine this......
You and the wife are coming back from town just taking it easy on a really nice day. We're within a couple miles of home, I'm driving about 45mph and we're just enjoying the ride.
We pass a field that we've passed probably thousands of times and many times we see all sorts of critters out there. Driving slow, I just glance out into the field.
Now the wife on the other hand, she was watching the road. Probably a good thing
Up the road probably 200 or 250yds, two fawns crossed. Now I had just glanced momentarily at that field.
LOOK OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Someone hollers.
Now if you have any common sense at all, you know exactly what I did because you'd have done the same darn thing. SLAM ON THE BRAKES!!!
Yup, the anti-lock brakes worked, the seat belts worked and there was a little screeching of the tires. I'm searching all over around the truck for whatever I evidently just missed hitting.
That's when I was told, 'I didn't want you to hit those fawns.'
200 to 250yds away????????
Back to coming home..... we had went to town to get more softener salt. We're stocking up not because of any shortage, but once I get this knee replaced, it couldn't be carried down the steps.
So guess where the 6 bags of softener salt are in the back of my truck????
