Hemlady said:I don't much like spiders either. We haven't had very many this year. Either the mantis have them all eaten or the drought has taken its toll on them. Usually this time of summer I am dodging orb weaver webs but haven't seen a one.

"My work is loving the world. Here the sunflowers, there the hummingbird — equal seekers of sweetness. Here the clam deep in the speckled sand. Are my boots old? Is my coat torn?
