Dead Deer

While my friend Edith Hall Friedheim and I were driving up to the Inn at Manitou, a deer suicided into our car. Actually, Edie was driving and I was turned facing her as we talked. I saw the deer jump over a divided highway. Edie was looking ahead and didn't see the deer until I screamed. She swerved and saved us and the car.

The Casulties: one deer, one left view mirror and a big dent in left side of rental car.

We went on to Inn at Manitou and were soothed by savouring gourmet food and getting massages and facials.

I have never seen anyone or anything commit suicide before
