This summer has been an especially productive one for spiders in our backyard. The spider in this picture was spinning a web in our garage, between a trash can and an extension ladder hanging up on the wall.

Lucy was very brave to hold a sparkler on the 4th of July. That's Kevin in the background, watching approvingly. Hi, Kevin!

What can I say? Every kid loves a sparkler.
