I lived in an 18 foot RV out on a dry lake bed, south east of Edwards AFB. (A strange bucket list item of mine). I could go on and on about Mojave Greens, Black widows, Tarantulas, etc.

I was driving home one night...and there was one stop sign out of the middle of nowhere. You could literally see cars 5 miles away if there were any, but for some reason, I always stopped. Anyway, as I was pulling up to the stop sign, I saw what I thought were, honest to God, lobsters walking across the road. The lights of my headlights reflected off their backsides. There had to be 10 of them....Giant Desert Hairy Scorpions. They were almost a foot long each. I hopped out of my car to look at them, but it definitely creeped me out.

Talk about an experience living out there...
Partying with you is never gonna be on my bucket list!!.
