Wow is the city ever clean this am. Big rains last night have swept away all the dust and debris that's been building up for months. It's like the whole town is clean and shiny now.

Almost got nailed by 2 deer crossing the street going down the hill from the house. Saw the cars brake hard on the other side of the road, then the deer came flying across the grassy median directly into my path. Emergency braking, skids, steering away, and crapping my pants seems to have saved a collision. Freakin Bambi... But then again I suppose we did build in ~their~ neighborhood. Glad that all involved were able to go on to have a good day.
