Never seen this type of spider before. Some one else commented on Facebook that it is a Brown Recluse. I see no violin though but it was about the size of a quarter.

Help please.

Most definitely NOT a recluse, or anything else dangerous for that matter...

Any idea what type of spider it is? I'm pretty outdoorsy and never seen this particular one before.

I would like to be able to see its eye pattern in order to be more certain, but I believe that this could be a ghost spider (family Anyphaenidae) - see https://farm1.staticflickr.com/579/21681944944_ed2df0339a_b.jpg for an example.
