My Tripod is a Spider Magnet
Title:  My Tripod is a Spider Magnet
Description:  During our visit in Kirkwood, this spider crawled on my tripod and started weaving a web. I flicked it off, but eventually it came back! It must have gotten flicked off three or four times before I just moved the tripod somewhere else. What makes this story even more funny is that back at home before this trip, a spider had made a web on the tripod as well!
