We got our car ready and hit the road. We first tried to do some paper service. A car went by us at ten over. I turned on it, but it disappeared. We think it made a quick turn on a side road and darkened out. We drove some side roads but didn&#8217;t find anything.<\/p>\n<p>We went to the SO and then to Subway with the others for dinner. Then we hit the road again. We went up north and worked Tekoa. Then we worked a bunch of county roads. It was very dead on some of them. We didn&#8217;t see any cars for several hours.<\/p>\n<p>We were finally heading into Colfax. I was driving down Buck Canyon when all of a sudden Melcher said something. I see the deer running right in front of the car. It is bigger than life. I thought for sure we were going to hit it. We missed it, but as the deer kept running it got tagged by a box van. It was laying in the middle of the road bleeding and kicking. It didn&#8217;t take long for it to die. <\/p>\n<p>The box van sustained minor damage, but not enough for it to meet the damage threshold for being reportable.<\/p>\n<p>It was pretty much the end of the night. We drove to the Albion road and then back. I rinsed the car because it got pretty dirty on the county roads before going home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I stopped in at Pullman Fire for a while and chatted with Reiber and the guys for a little while.
