CENTRO CRISTIANO EMANUEL

Life in the DR

















I had been on the look out for a tarantula. I had promised a friend, Jared, that I would take a picture when I saw one. I knew it would not take long to spot one since our back storage room is full of them. Apparently the get along well with rats, because the back room is full of them also. Anyway, last Tuesday night I was on my way to get a bucket of water from the cistern and there it was. I ran and got the camera and began taking pictures, but I knew that I had to kill it because I did not want it to get in the house. I was home alone and I did not want to do the deed, well I knew I could not do the deed. Supposedly they are not poisionous, but they do bite and jump. I had tried once to kill one and it did not go well, that is when I discovered that they jump. Anyway, after the photo shot I called over Frankley,a man from the church, and thankfully he came right over and did what I knew I could not do. Thanks Frankely.
