I love the drive on Olentangy River Road between Powell Rd and Rt 23. During the summer it’s lined with trees. During the winter one can get an occasional glimpse of the frosty water. Over the weekend, I set up my camera on the dash … something I sometimes do.
At one point, I was treated to two fawns in and near the road. Their mother was in the pasture next to the woods. Fortunately, the other oncoming driver also saw them and was able to stop. It was the middle of the afternoon which is not normally the time deer are visible. We usually must keep an alert eye out for them on these roads in the early to late evening. I’ve come close to hitting deer, but thankfully so far haven’t had an encounter.

Great video- You did a fine job editing too. Better than I do. That is greenery overload for me. Here in the west the dry brown prairie is all we ever see until we get into the mountains. Keep up the video.
Thanks for the complement. I use OneTrueMedia for the video editing, but can only cut off the beginning or ending, not in the middle of a clip. It does do a nice job of joining multiple clips. I had to add music to cancel out the Jeep’s engine noise. It’s also easy to upload to YouTube.
I checked your Tomato blog. Very, very nice. If you’re on “green” overload, be sure to visit my photo blog. Link is on the side bar. We may have greenery, but we don’t have the gorgeous Rockies. I LOVE mountains!
