The Tarantulas of Pie Town

I ripped off the blindfold and stared into the tiny blue pool. Six huge tarantulas were swimming about in slow motion. Their legs brushed against my calves as they cruised in lazy circles.

"Whoa!" I yelled, leaping out.

"Thought you said you didn't fear these critters?" one of the men said. He was nearly doubled over, laughing.

"Don't take it personally," one cowboy said. "We do this to greenhorns every summer."

I was more shocked than afraid. I stuck around awhile and watched the spiders. Like me, they were hotter than was comfortable and trying to cool off.

I noticed the wading pool was old, with patches and sagging sides.

"The café owner knows about the spiders," a cowboy said. "They come for a swim on hot days. The owner, he keeps clear of the spiders, but runs water into the pool for their sakes."

It struck me as just what a cowboy-out-west person would do: fear something and be kind to it at the same time.

After this trip to Pie Town I was treated no differently from any other cowhand on the ranch. I'd won my spurs.
