Had to replace battery in my car today. Just finished and noticed this pretty little spider crossing driveway toward car.

After Elizabeth went to several quilt stores in Sanger, Whitesboro, and Denton, we got to go to Ray Roberts Lake State Park! :) We really enjoyed the northern part of the park (Johnson Branch) -- the trails were great! :)

Came early to help out with a cooking class this evening at the Central Market in Southlake... This was a wild game cooking class where I spoke about the role of hunting in conservation. It was fun! Beforehand, I visited a park and the side of a road. :)

This thing was on the floor at the Hardwick center. It had a red thorax and was black on the rest of it's body. It was a fairly good sized spider but was missing two of it's eight legs. It was a very beautiful spider and it is one I have never seen before. After I took several photos I took it outside on a piece of paper and did it very carefully. It was a very fast spider too missing a couple of legs didn't slow it down at all. The red spot was very attractive and my eyes went right to it. It was bright and was about the size of the whole length of the thorax.

Or maybe Castianeira descripta? However, I can't see any white stripes on posterior tibia. Any suggestions? Update: IDed on BugGuide. http://bugguide.net/node/view/1236538#2189730
