June 23 – My how plans change. We were going to repower in Oklahoma City then getting to Dallas Friday night or Saturday. Now it seems that someone needed to be repowered in Gallup, NM with the load going to Salt Lake City by 4AM. We swapped trailers and hit the road. This runis my plans for getting home for the weekend! ERRRRR!!!
While we were on northern Colorado on 191 I just happen to look up and see at least 3 and maybe 4 deer leisurely walking across the road in our lane. Yep, we hit them at 65mph. Got the truck pulled over and checked under the truck and looked for damage on the truck. The only thing that we saw was the license plate was missing. While my trainer makes the required phone calls, I go back and look for the license plate. I found it along with one deer that was on the side of the road. I am pretty sure that we hit a second deer so I am thinking that it was able to run into the field to die.
We finally made it to the receiver and only 30 minutes late. Got unloaded and to a truckstop this morning.
