clean up!

Well I decided to wash out the trash cans out in the yard. Such fun I spotted the ember pot by the fire pit and decided to clean it up and take it back in to put by the fireplace. I flipped it over and there was a small black widdow spider! I didn'r even know they had those in Kansas. I asked my roomate if she had ever seen one and showed it to her. She grew up in this house and she had never seen one. I took it back out and smooshed it and then kicked myself for not getting a picture of her. She was a young girl. I'm sure her family has to be around here some where. I'll definitely have to keep my eyes open when I am packing the garadge up. Keeping a lookout for brown recluses is bad enough. At least black widdows are easier to see.
