Here is a picture of my fabulous husband cleaning out my kayak from the winter.
And here is a picture of the fabulously enormous spider that crawled out from under the seat.
EEEEK!! At least he was cooperative enough to hang around while we went to get the camera and a quarter for perspective. But still…EEEEK!! I can guarantee I would have leaped out of the kayak if I’d discovered him out on the water.
After a thorough check under the seat for this guy’s friends and relatives, we went out for a lovely paddle on a calm lake before the winds picked up. Also got the vegetable garden in today, planted flowers by the mailbox, and finished reading TRACKING TRASH by Loree Burns and THE INVENTION OF HUGO CABRET by Brian Selznick. Both amazing and unique, in amazingly different ways. I’ll post reviews soon, but I’m being summoned for a bonfire now. Virtual s’mores to my LJ friends!
That looks like the spider that crawled out of the railing of our pool – it’s a biggie! Mine had to be rescued from the water.
EEEEK, is right!!! That sucker gives me the willies just thinking about it! I would have had a heart attack it it had crawled out on me when I was cinched down into a kayak.
Yummm, Thanks for the virtual S’mores
Oops! That was me
We had a couple that size (at least!) living under our dock when we lived in NH…nice guys, GREAT picture.
