Hiking--Not for the Faint of Heart

The other day we took the boys hiking around Lake Georgetown. We've been several times before, but this time we took a different route. The other times that we've gone we have been able to get to the water fairly easily, but this time we weren't able to. We just kept getting stuck trying to get down to it. However, Jerad did manage to find the largest group of Daddy Long Leg Spiders ever! Jerad walked a little further than rest of us (while we sat and cooled off with some water), then he came back and got the boys to take them to see the spiders. I stayed behind and I am so glad I did. I really think I might have completely come undone if I had seen what he was showing them. There is a picture at the bottom.


Yep, those are thousands of little spiders and there were three groups like this. Jerad threw a rock at them (of course) and they began to scurry towards the boys and which point they ran back to me and we left.
