Back from Tamarack; this was a gig in which every thing clicked way past our expectations, and they want us back around Xmas. CarolC, that was a hell of a deer to hit; he cleared your hood and other than the right side headlights and a groove along the Rt fender everything was above the wipers. You remember me telling you of the deer I hit during a vehicle pursuit along old Route 7 above Dulles. That destroyed my brand new (less than 1,000 miles) Chevy Caprice cruiser. I hit him at over 90 miles an hour, and the deer vaporized, as did most of the front end of the cruiser. After I climbed out the window ( the front fenders had displaced rearward to cover and jam my doors) my Sgt. arrived and asked me "What the hell did you hit?". After looking around at the bits of blood and fur, I responded, " I donno; I think it was a little old lady in a fur coat". I will write more tomorrow about the impending trip.
