Tarantula Alert!

Dave and I were up on deck working on stuff this morning and a lady from a boat down the dock started screaming about a tarantula on board.

The ruckus went on for quite some time because she lost sight of it and wasn't sure where it had gone. Then she washed it overboard, only to have the dang thing climb right back aboard. Someone who was watching said it actually swam under the boat and climbed up the other side, but I didn't see that myself.

She finally took her hose and washed it toward the shore and it disappeared into the jungle (not that far from our boat!)

Unfortunately we were not fast enough to get a picture of it. :(
