   Today while shopping Jeff sent me about the worst text ever.  It looked like this:

 
In case you can't quite see what that's a picture of, here's another shot Jeff took:

From the text I couldn't tell exactly how big this thing was.  But the baseball picture says it all.  When I arrived back home, Jeff had the spider trapped inside a plastic bin with a lid on it.  I have never seen a tarantula in the "wild."  I was shocked.  The kids, however, seem completely unfazed. 
  I named it Harry.  After dinner Jeff released Harry in an empty lot a few houses away.  The kids were asking about Harry all night.
