The closest stop sign is over a mile away and the first traffic light is 5+ miles down the road. A visit to the grocery store is almost 30 miles round trip.

black widow vs lizard

I spotted this in my garage beneath the wheelbarrow.

My movement caused the black widow to move above the lizard.  
The lizard was suspended mid-air about 4 inches off the ground.
