So, not everything is perfect in paradise so they say. Although we have not had any snake encounters, we have had plenty of spider sightings. The problem is that they usually occur either in or around our house! The first one we saw ran across the wall at lightning speed one night. I am not stretching the truth when I say it was as big as a baseball. Fat, dark, furry and ugly. Not sure what kind it was (probably deadly) the main point is that it escaped our attempts to smash it, and now we don't know where it is ? (Shiver) Last night there was one on my window by my head right before I went to sleep.....or I should say that was the original plan, not sure if I actually slept that well. After careful investigation of the spider book - we think it was a huntsman , and this is good since they are one of the few that are actually harmless to humans . whew.
We are checking inside our shoes now before we put them on.
Okay, I was never afraid of spiders before today....Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWow. That makes our spiders look like sugar ants. Yikes.
ReplyDeleteDan just sent this to me and I am so glad - I was so curious how it was all going and I was a good girl and read it all in order. I am glad to see it truly is the fairy tale come true! Well, that is, until the spiders. That just might do me in....
ReplyDeleteIt sure sounds like you are all doing great. I sure hope I can make it there one of these years to visit.
The spiders here are crazy-- and now that I'm "following" you I hope to hear more about your experience here--- no pressure of course-- haha.
