Spider, Kitchen Floor; Sunday A.M.

A black widow? (Quick shudder) A brown recluse? Lurking in shoes. Red Rover, Red Rover, one bite and it's over? No just a half inch "noir" on her way to the car, children at home alone.

Hi, dear Friend. I think of the widow every time I put on my "yard" shoes which is just once in a while. I suppose I should shake them vigorously. I think I've read everything now, so just checking up. How are you? We have at least eleven stray kitties on our front porch for food every day. Five kittens. I hope they grow a little more before the really cold weather. Love, Dave
