Interesting spider, new to me

While harvesting strawberries this morning, I disturbed this spider. Well, didn't disturb it too badly as it just sat there and waited on me to leave. But is quite large, counting legs about the size of a half dollar. Fat abdomen would have me believe that some young ones may be on the way.
