Spiders!

This morning I saw a crane fly, and it brought to mind the very first time I recall seeing a crane fly when I was a kid. My first thought was, "What the hell? Spiders can fly?"

You see, I thought it was a daddy long-legs that had sprouted wings and was cruising around the world on a sightseeing adventure.

Of note: The daddy long legs is the only spider I am not freaked out by or scared of. My dad told me when I was a kid that they couldn't even bite you because their mandibles were to small (probably not true!) and I don't think I really can imto the fear of spiders until well after that, when I found out about all the gross, crunchy, hairy, bitey, poisonous ones.

Ah, to be young and fearless again.

Woo!

In less than an hour, we'll be heading down to the docks to set foot on the nuptial boat of Rich and Juli.

Congratulations, guys! You're awesome.
