This scorpion is from the “Design On File” folder book I scored somewhere in the travels. So much good stuff in it. I am pretty freaked out by scorpions. That stinger, those little bulbous links on their tales….yuck. Oh, those pinchers, too. I remember some kid telling me about these little translucent ones that would show up in Bend, Oregon in the summer. I never looked at grass the same in those parts.

Worked this morning some, then, did a little shoplifting with the little sister, then, did nothing into the evening.
