GIANT SPIDER: It9s a
friend, likely eating
undesirable guests
AIRSHOW: Planes, cars,
music, fireworks, and
more on tap in Madras

nasty venom that causes seri-
ous damage to human flesh.
However, all you9ve gotta
do to keep them out of your
domicile is not leave any
food lying around that attracts
insect scavengers, which the
brown recluse loves to eat.
Compared to most spiders,
they are all legs and very lit-
tle body. If you kill a brown
recluse to get a positive ID,
don9t squash it. Place it all in
one piece in a small jar or plas-
tic sandwich bag and take it to
the local health department.
Now& back to the giant
European house spider: If you
leave it alone, it will probably
4 in spite of its enormous size
4 disappear, like ours did.
It may give you a scare once
in a while, but just remember
that it9s probably taken care
of a number of smaller unde-
sirable house guests for you.
And please send me an email,
jimnaturalist@gmail.com, and
I9ll put it in my records.
Following the music and
the fish-fry dinner or other
food choices, Friday finishes
up with a fireworks display
choreographed to music,
sponsored by Pacific Power.
For the kids there will be
bouncy castles. For the not-
so-faint-of-heart, High Desert
Soaring will give you a pow-
erless glider ride for $100.
Bend Aircraft will have air-
plane rides and Leading Edge
Helicopters will give you a
lift for a charge.
Not all of the planes are
propeller-driven. Jerod Flohr
will demonstrate a T-6 jet.
Renny Price takes the con-
trols of Sukhoi SU-29. And
Undaunted Airshows, a pairs
performance by Stephen
C h r i s t o p h e r a n d To d d
Rudberg, is likely to raise
heart rates.
From Arizona Flying
Museum, catch a ride on a
WWII B-17 flying fortress.
Saturday will feature not one
but two B-17s in the air: <Ye
Olde Pub= and <Sentimental
Journey= are two of fewer
than 10 remaining B-17s fly-
ing in the world.
The car show sponsored
by Les Schwab is in itself a
big draw, say the promoters.
The entries include Custom
or Import, any year; Muscle
Car Stock, any year (no more
than two upgrades); Original
4 Pre-1941 (no more than
two upgrades); Original 4
1941-1987 (no more than
two upgrades; Pickup Truck
4 Pre-1987; Rat Rod or
Sports Car, any year; Street
Rod 4 1948 and Older; and
Street Machine 4 1949 and
Newer.
<It9s not just an airshow,
one of only two in Oregon,
It’s not just an
airshow ... it’s a fun-filled
family festival, one that’s
sorely needed in the face
of pandemic gloom.
