During the summer of 2002 I visited a friend of mine who lives in Torrance, CA (Los Angeles area). While there, I decided to go out to the car to get my bike which was attached to a bike rack on the car. I opened the hatchback and saw a spider web, but no spider. I thought that was odd so made an attempt to get a photo of the web. Then, a little later and after I had gotten my bike off the rack the spider showed up (I scared him when opening up the hatch). Weird...
