my husband took his school club up to mt. diablo this past saturday and they saw tarantula on the road as they were driving to the summit...they did not see them at rock city though.
happy b-day!
@Nicole, that's awesome! Ah yes, the road - it looks like a busy tarantula crossing lane. Thanks for the bday wishes!
Laure, It was so good to hear you on KQED! I just checked out your apple picking adventure and I think we may make a venture to Santa Cruz this weekend! Thanks so much for your great research. Erika Kelly
