    My best guess is it's a Aculepeira armida or Orb Spider

    BC_MoM, that looks much better!! Thanks!

    what kind of spider is that?
    Not sure, but I was told it's a so-called garden spider, or Araneus diadematus. As far as I know, they live in Europe only.

    What a gorgeous garden spider! The ones around here are a brilliant yellow and really stand out among the tall grass and pines.
