Wednesday, March 3, 1965 The Frances Hubbard Diaries

March 3, 1965
Wednesday, beautiful day, 50's, partly cloudy.  I covered cushions for davenport.  Clifton cut up deer that LaVerne hit and we put 1/2 of it in cooler.

Comment: Deer-car collisions were quite common. I remember at least two that I was involved in. Pete Hughes had a deer come through the windshield into the front seat of his car and after the stunned deer revived, of course, it wanted to get out and Pete wound up with a noticeable scar on his chin....must have been an exciting couple of minutes...
Mom says they put the deer in the "cooler"...I think that means the milk cooler but not sure. Before we got a freezer and refrigerator, we often put perishable stuff in the milk cooler........
