On Saturday we caught part of the classic William Shatner movie “Kingdom Of The Spiders,” which features a horde of tarantulas devouring a town. On Sunday we went on a ramble and found a large tarantula sneaking across a parking lot just off of Arkansas 7 north of Hot Springs.
Luckily I had brought my bug-shootin’ lens with me. Abby poked the spider with a stick and it reared up in the scary position and stayed that way for about 10 minutes while I shot a bunch photos. So nice of it to pose for me.
