Spiders

When I opened the door this morning to take my DS to the bus stop, I discovered a spider has built a web across our porch steps. I didn't have time to deal with it then, so I took DS out through the basement instead. I'm going out in a little while and knock down the web.

Apparently our front porch steps are prime spider real estate. This is the third spider in the three years we've been here to set up shop there, and always in the fall. Last year's spider, after being evicted, moved into the bushes next to the steps. Maybe this one will do the same. I don't mind the spiders, I just want the use of my steps! :)
