June 24, 2012By y2kemo

So I went camping with my sister and family over the weekend. As usual, we gobbled up the s’mores by the campfire prior to winding down.

In the morning, as my brother-in-law prepared breakfast, he removed the box of graham crackers from the food bag. When he did he found a little ole spider hanging out in the corner.

Naturally, we removed the spider from its new-found home, placed it in my niece’s butterfly container, and took a bunch of photos.
