She was beautiful

Beautiful to my eyes

From the moment I saw her

The sun filled the sky

She was so, so beautiful

Beautiful just to hold

In my dreams she was springtime

Winter was cold

I was out Sunday night with my new VP. We had a good day and were relaxing with a couple of drinks. I was on the club soda because I was driving. We had just left after spending some time with this type of Bambi.

When I ran into this type of Bambi.

I literally mean, ran into. Crossing RT9 in front of the old Weathervane restaurant were six or eight deer, walking across the road in a straight line. I couldn't swerve, there was no place to go. Now, had it been the first type of Bambi ,I would have driven into the snowbank or what ever needed to be done to stop. I hit this deer dead center, pardon the pun.

Now I'm waiting for the insurance company to declare my car dead as Bambi. I looked up the book value for the car, $850, I'm sue there is more damage than that. My mechanic is searching for parts from a junk yard. he asked if I minded if the replacements weren't white. It's a 1987 Buick, of course I don't mind if it's two different colors. It might even add a bit of class to it.

Coming soon, things to look forward to in 2009 with the Saratoga AOH
