We've Been Followed!


On his way to rehearsal this morning, Jon was greeted by this guy. We knew from experience (click here) that he's a Saint Andrew's Cross spider: extremely large (body as big as your big toe - not kidding) and menacing-looking but harmless to humans and an eater of bad bugs. So, he's allowed to stay....outside, that is.

That's disgusting. I hate bugs. We also have spiders, but I never take pictures of them...I run screaming the other way for my husband. My word verification is gronized. That's how I feel about spiders: gronized.

OH DEAR GOD!!!!!!

Thanks for sharing that beastie of a spider.

At least he/she is not a man eater!
