Oh, the spider season on the coast side of the mountains is long, long, long, and many of the garden spiders become enormous. They are so beautiful. Something else that is beautiful is a meadow that is covered with horizontal webs, early in the morning, beaded with dew catching the light from the rising sun. Awe-inspiring.

I don't know that I've seen exactly what you're describing, but I've seen spider webs beaded with dew, and I agree that's very beautiful. I don't see much in the way of enormous spiders in Massachusetts, and I didn't see enormous ones in the DC area when I lived there. But I like 'em regardless of size. On twitter, there used to be a young Australian woman who tweeted beautiful photos of spiders that she took. I haven't seen her in months though.
