This picture was taken last Sunday on Aug 13. It was right outside the door of our garage. I think she wants to be our new neighbor! Needless to say she got squashed, Ben took care of it, but I thought we should get a good picture of her first! Even though she is scary and deadly to some, I think she is fascinating at the same time! This photo was taken on August 13, 2006 almost four years ago. It was at our house in Chula Vista. Well apparently there is another species of widow that I and many other San Diegans aren't aware of. It is called The Brown Widow. There was a story about them on the news. They are twice as poisonous as the black cousin, but only inject half the amount of venom. So the bites are pretty equal as far as attacks go. Just our luck we have lots of them hanging out around our new house. The old place had lots of black ones now we get the brown ones here. Yuk!!!


Ben took this shot out in our back yard on Connor's birthday. The tree it is in is on the other side of our fence.


These beautiful red leaves are from the tree in our back yard. It has the most beautiful pink flowers on it too, when it blooms.
