Working at a dealership out of town (about 6,000 - 10,000 pop.) just minding my own business, then out of the corner of my eyes I see this lint laying on the used tires in the service bay; but upon further inspection it was actually an itty bitty spider.

I have never seen something this size in the city.

I swear, as it was spinning it's web up and down, with it's legs wide open, it was at least the size of a loonie. (in the pic, it's curled up)

Then the entire mechanic shop came to a stall cause I called all the mechanics over to check it out... then the spider died of a painful death cause someone decided to slowly drop acetone onto it... poor Charlotte.

No, as you can see in the pic, it's deep within the BOTTOM of 3 flatly stacked up rim/tire set (the fouth tire sits on top upright, with price tag)...

I thought it was a Wolf Spider?


Speaking of spiders, I saw one up at my brothers place, about the size of a quarter, plus legs, with a yellow abdomen, anyone know what kind it is? I tried google but found nothing.
