Wolf Spider in Rock Canyon

This hairy wolf spider was sharing the trail in rock canyon with me. As I was taking pictures of me he kept charging at me. A very aggressive individual.

Wolf Spider in the Dark

There are a lot of creepy things in the world. This wolf spider was living in the stair well of my apartment. I was fine with him being there, but I think some one got tired of him building his webs across the stairs and removed him. Now I don't think I would like this guy in my house, but outside, in a stair well, or in the bushes he is beautiful in a hairy creepy way.

Spider Monkey Day Dream: The Grass is Greener on the Other Side.

Have you ever wanted something you couldn't have. At some point this occurs to the best of us.We all have our day dreams in which we are rich or famous. We all have our moments in which we think, if only. But don't let dreaming of what might be make you miss out on what could have been if you had lived today. Dreams can either focus our lives and give us drive, or they can destroy us in a foul mood of ill contentment. Let your dreams be a driving force for good. Don't covet what is not yours, rather find a way to become what you dream off and no fence can ever hold you back. Don't sit at the base of the fence like this spider monkey with a dumb look on your face, but get to work and hatch the plan that will allow you to get over the fence, because when you get there by yourself, rather than having it given to you, you will find the grass greener on the other side.
