Mandy's ID looks right to me.

Thanks also for the feedback.

cobweb spider
of some kind is my guess.

 
Looks like a female Nesticodes rufipes
I believe N. rufipes is the only Nesticodes species in the US...and all are from Cali, Texas, & Florida. Common name is the Red House Spider.

BugGuide dependability!!!!

 
I'm glad you submitted these photos!
The guide pages for this species is rather bare. Nice images!

Thanks for the positive comment. Its an obsessive macro lens thing.

 
I can totally understand that, lol!
I think everybody here loves to take photos of anything/everything that moves. Macro lenses are lifesavers. :)
