Spider

I was in the front yard one afternoon this week throwing the ball to Pattie. I happened to look up towards my bedroom window and saw this spider hanging out there. I got closer and saw it's massive size! I'm usually okay if I see spiders; meaning I can handle them by getting rid of them. However, this one took me by surprise and sent a shiver down my spine. When I stepped closer for a look, I did notice it was pretty interesting looking. It actually has some yellow markings on the front, but you can't see them from the picture. I went inside, sat on my bed, lifted the blinds, and took the picture. Either way, as long as it stays outside we're good!
