was on my list of priorities. I had a good system going, stacking each piece with other pieces of similar shapes and sizes. Almost half way through the pile I came across something I had never seen before. There were three ants all pulling in separate directions, trying to disarm (literally) a spider! I silently cheered them on, "Way to go guys! Teamwork makes the dream work!" (I am not a huge fan of spiders)
So I stopped to take a picture as you can see above, and then I got back to work. I was almost through the entire pile, and I paused to admire my neat little stacks of firewood. I turned around, picked up the last two boards, and there staring me right in the face was a HUGE spider - about the size of a QUARTER! And I was really wondering where those ants were when I needed them. Anyway, It was kind of the highlight of my day.
Then I took a picture of a giant pine cone because I love pine cones, and it was so pretty. It really made me feel better after all of the trauma I had gone through with the spider.
