, author of RULES and the upcoming middle grade novel TOUCH BLUE, is posting a picture of her hometown on her blog every day this week and has invited other writers to do the same. Here’s my first contribution – a reminder that Lake Champlain is home to families other than mine.
We were instantly reminded of the end of Charlotte’s Web when we discovered these babies on our deck a couple weeks ago. They’re all gone now — except for a few who have spun webs on the posts nearby — but it was fun to share their first weekend in the world.
ACKKKK! no offense but,….ACKKKK! hehehe I have a thing about spiders who aren’t named Charlotte!
Awesome photo! They’re saying hello and goodbye!
Wow! That is AWESOME! I love spiders. 🙂
mmmmmmm…not sure if I love them, but don’t hate them either…fun picture!

<--running screaming in the opposite direction!
🙂 As long as they’re outside. . . .
Okay, I’m not as brave as you — I wouldn’t handle a family of spiders well at all! 🙂
I’d freak out but I must admit, it’s a great picture!
That picture is made of awesome!
Eeek! Great picture!
Wow! That is one amazing picture!
No offense taken. I used to have a thing about spiders, too, but there are SO many of them here that I’ve gotten over it.
Exactly!
Thanks! These were just beautiful – so absolutely new.
Fair enough! Thanks, Mona – I’ve been enjoying your home town photographs, too!
This is the greatest mix of comments I’ve ever gotten on one post. People either love these little guys or hate them. Anyway, sorry to send you running. I’ll try to post some nice rainbows or bunnies for you later on…
Well, yes – We usually move indoor spiders out to the garden, too.
They’re really, really small and cute!
Thanks! (I hope I didn’t give you nightmares!)
Thanks! I loved their leggy little shadows.
Thanks, Kristy!
Thanks! It was incredible to watch them – I was happy the photo turned out so well.
Cute spider…now that’s an oxymoron! 🙂
Just no moles.
Ah…that’s a terrific photo Kate, but the subject matter creeps me out. Are those just from one egg casing?
