    That’s MASSIVE….at least it’s big enough to give you warning of where it is as it clomps around your house….

    Oh my! We are getting those in the house too. And yes, you can hear them scuttling across the floor and jumping on furniture! My worst nightmare.

    You have to admire a woman (and her dog) you can write a Haiku when godzilla has invaded the living room.. Let alone find the camera!

    I had to hunt down one of a similar size this morning for Mrs Widds, out into the garden it went. Our overheated dry summer (very unusual for a temperate rain-forest climate – but what’s ‘usual’ these days?) has ended, and the poor spider went from cozy among the desk papers, to raindrops on the rosebush. 🙂

    “The Spider Story”…a favorite Jennie Story with preschoolers. Creepy. Will have to share that. You are quite brave with that beast.
