If you were swimming in the ocean and you saw these, you would be very motivated to get out of the water. There are not too many things in life that can create that sort of strong drive or sense of urgency. If you haven't guessed already, these are jelly fish. I snapped this photo a few months ago at the Shedd Acquarium in Chicago---which is a great city, by the way.
Pat, So nice of you to stop by. Isn't the Aquarium a cool place. Did you get to visit any of the Museums? In case you did not know - Naperville is a western suburb of Chicago.
Great picture. Glad to here that they weren't in a local ocean...but a local aquarium. I'll never go in the water again! Maybe get my toes wet.
Shedd Acquarium in Chicago was one of our best family trips ever. My oldest son confirmed that as he recently took his girlfriend there.
This morning I spotted a yellow spider scrambling over the dashboard towards me. I almost drove off the road trying to shoo it off. Small yellow spiders can be very poisonous, and I have no way of finding out while driving if it is or not. I did not take a photo, and I'm sure that the people behind me thought I was drinking.
Kimberly--I did know that! I have helped lots of people relocate to the Indianapolis area from Naperville. Every single one hated to leave! We had so much fun in Chicago. I cannot wait to go back. I think my favorite thing was the deep dish pizza!!
Michael--I am not nearly as brave about the ocean as I used to be. The life guards used to have to blow their whistles to get me to come closer to shore---not anymore!!
Michael Price--Chicago is probably pretty close to you. Only three hours from Indianapolis. It is nice to be so close to other cities that have great things to see and do!
Mary Jo---I posted a picture of a yellow spider about a month ago. It was not on my dash though!!!! I hate to have an insect dive bomb me when I am driving! Very dangerous!! However, jelly fish are confined to water, so I don't think you will have to worry about being attacked by one while driving. :-)
Pat, Great photo. I was guessing it was a micrscopic pic of bacteria or something! Funny.
Isn't the Shedd awesome!!! I made a point of going there at least twice a year when I used to live in Chicago, and even that wasn't often enough.
Juli--I must admit, I loved all of Chicago. It was so much fun to be able to walk to get to places. The Aquarium was pretty special!
Joan--You are just too smart! I have never been stung and I intend to keep it that way!
