Yeah- Andrea hit a deer on that stretch of highway between Boulder & Lyons. I was sleeping in the front seat & she had low beams on & didn't see it until it was too late (as we were going about 70) and i woke up when she said "oh shit" & I saw the deer, & we swerved left & sideswiped it, but there was a car coming directly at us so she overrcorrect right & we spun a 180 off the road, and down half a hillside. We were lucky though- if we'd gone another 2 feet, the drop off would have caused us to roll. But then her pretty yellow car was sideways on the steep hill & we had to crawl out my window to observe the damage. (I later learned that there was nothing wrong with the my door- I was just panicing & couldn't open it, so we went through the window. Ha). Anyway, the damage consists of a big hole in the siding on the passanger door. And we left it to be towed this morning. But yeah, it could have been a lot worse....or better, I suppose.
