Ewww...

Several days ago, I pointed out that I'm not a bug person but wasn't really bothered by that day's grasshopper.  This mother thing scared the bejesus out of me.  It was just outside of my front door as I was leaving.  Naturally being a blipper, I had to run into the house for a camera even though I was already running 30 minutes late.  Ahhh...what's an extra five minutes when  a six-inch nasty creepy crawler wiggles its way into your life. 

My apologies to all of you bug lovers for my poor attitude towards things that freak me out.   :-)
