I think I'm gonna have very bad dreams after seeing those spiders.  They are my #1 fear in this world.  I have many cans of raid around my house to help get rid of those evil, vile creatures.

The previous pix were when me and "friend" 
:-) went for a hike a few years ago and these were 
some of the picks. 
:-) :-)  There was a story about this very day at CS but is now apparantly in digit heaven.

Really it was just an old Canon A620 p-n-s, but it really worked very well.

Daughter and some of her friends came running in this evening and said I should see some grasshoppers they discovered:

Cicadas were cool, until I moved to Okinawa...they are the size of a golfball here and have no concept of personal space....and they scream bloody murder when they fly!!
