Pathway - Spider - Sit Spot - August 22, 2020

Our pathways are drying out and cracking.

We need rain, sooner rather than later.

I do not know what kind of spider this is

but I enjoyed the colours of the 

Milkweed, Spider, and Grey Dogwood.

Thanks to my partner, Fleur-Ange,

for pointing them out to me!
