And Scarier Still...

I don't know what it is with all the spiders around here recently, but I am starting to get more than a little paranoid about it. 

Especially when I have this thing living on my back porch:

It is HUGE! And the web stretches literally all the way across the porch.

  

I feel pretty sure it's ultimate goal is to catch one of us.

And it seems to get bigger with each passing day.
