Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet
Eating her curds and whey,
Along came a spider,
Who sat down beside her
And frightened Miss Muffet away

Last year we heard our neighbor screaming outdoors. There had been a big spider on her riding lawn mower when she took it from her shed.
Somehow she had the sense to take a picture and had it printed for my husband to drop by the entomology department at the University.
It was a wolf spider! We'd never heard of such a thing. They said it is the biggest spider in our state.
Oh my! I'm getting the heebie jeebies just looking at that.
