there's a giant hole next to the stairs to our apt here, loretha swears she saw a big land crab in there once but no one else has ever seen it. just now i was reading before bed + loretha came in with a grainy photo she finally got of the cryptid crab + we excitedly looked at it. THEN i keep reading, pgs later annie tells a story abt stumbling on a big blue crab in a desert + calling over a stranger to admire it too!
