Spotted this guy yesterday at the Deerpark horse barn at The Biltmore
I was wondering what kind of bug with wings this was, but then when I looked closer at the picture, I realized it was a spider with a fly it had caught for dinner.

The Babylon 5 panels and Q&A sessions had me squeeing like a little girl.

An afternoon at Sullivan’s
Made it out to Poe’s Tavern on Sullivan’s Island for lunch with a friend today. Not sure why it’s taken me this long to get out there. Don’t have too many occasions or excuses to head out that way I guess. Poe’s makes a pretty good (and huge) burger.
Afterwards we went to wander along the beach. It was a nice afternoon out on the beach, and there were plenty of people around. Kite boarders were out in force.
Does anybody know what this happens to be out near Station 29? It seemed like some kind of fortification for a cannon or some other ocean pointing artillery.


With a little more sand and a little less ocean, you could pretend to be living on Tatooine in this house.

The first three tuna rolls. Our waitress told us they were 1, 2 and 3 from left to right. It turned out to be the other way around. No easing into the hotness for me. whew
I forgot to take photos of rolls 4 and 5
