Well, the real progress with the boat this week has been in getting the backlog of information and pictures posted here and on the sub-pages. I’ll be trying a little harder to keep up with my boat-project-related posts on the pages rather than here in the regular blogstream. I’ve been greatly inspired to do so by the real lack of L32-related info online, and am trying to fill the void a little.

Been trying to get a decent pic of one of these crazy spiders for some time. Hard to tell in a picture, but these critters aren’t silver; they’re totally metallic chrome. Also, for the people that don’t find insects as interesting, or perhaps just too creepidy, I’ve included a snap of one of the wee baby geckos living in my boat…
I’d read about these crazy wasps that hunt tarantulas, paralyze them, then lay their eggs on them, but never thought I’d see one in person. Just about stepped right over this pair… It was really cool watching the giant 2″+ wasp struggling to get the small, yet not-quite paralyzed tarantula dragged into deeper bush. Gnarly. This crimson-winged beauty must be what spiders have nightmares about.
