It’s been a wet holiday weekend. We’ve gotten more than an inch of rain today, part of the almost foot of water that has fallen so far this month. The recent series of storms has swollen streams and rivers from Nebraska to Texas, including around here. Caught in the shower is this candy-apple green orchard orbweaver, suspended from a cluster of tiny droplets outside my front door.

I don’t think I’ve seen many green spiders before. I get squeamish around them, but I can’t deny they can be beautiful little things.

Just one photo for today. Tomorrow looks drier, good news for the Memorial Day event in the morning at Fayetteville’s National Cemetery. I’m hoping to make it there.

Thanks for looking,

Dan
