I was unable to hike when we were in Canada on a summer vacation. My illness allowed me to only hobble. I either toured in the boat or sat behind. My family left me to my own devices many mornings, but I am an outdoors person so I looked for small nearby beauty. This spider lived on a web about 90cm x 90cm I communed with nature and it for over an hour. I also threatened my children upon their return with death if anyone touched the web and spider. I was sick of the Canadian mosquitoes.
