Get out the hairspray and a lighter!
Cool!......
..shuddering.. I know most spiders are good and all, but they just give me the creeps!
well, all except one spider that I’ve actually fallen in like with out here. It’s a green lynx spider that lives on my angel trumpets and it’s just the coolest looking thing you ever saw! LOL! But it’s a jumper so you don’t want to get too close .. at least I don’t. It flat kills all the caterpillers that dare to try and eat my plants, sucks the juices right out of the caterpiller and leaves the skin. Pretty cool : ) LMAO!
I thought of what we used to call ‘tent caterpillars’ as well, but the leaves appear pretty green inside the web, and should seem damaged had it been the worms.
You need to get you a Louisville Slugger to carry when you go out. Just wave it up in the air ahead of you as you walk : ) Also... gives the neighbors something to laugh at. But it works... trust me.
Oh my! That sounds good too! I’ll keep that one in mind.
I wonder if its last name is Clinton. LOL
ROFL!!! Good one!
I have a new name for this spider! LOL
Look at the eyes on the tree! You are good at this.
Lazy Lob and crazy Cob
are weaving webs to wind me.
I am far more sweet than other meat,
but still they cannot find me!

LOL! I knew it!
This brought back an ancient (at least 45 years ago) memory. Shortly after this military brat (me) married my good ole southern boy, Mr. RR came into our house after doing some yard work and announced, “Honey, I’ve got “bagworms”. Now, growing up on Air Force bases all over the world, I could identify every plane ever flown, price all items in the commissary, speak fluent German and French, met “Ike” personally, and even had a passport at age two. But, I never heard of “bagworms”. Fearing a dread sexual disease, he took me into the backyard to show me the webs of “bagworms” hanging from the trees.
We still laugh over that. Live and learn.
I think I see the looter guy too.
Not a chance! I won't rest until that wall-crawling menace is unmasked and behind bars where he belongs!
Did “What a tangled web we weave”, Hillary camp out there? My apologies to arachnids.
