The weather here is crazy. Last week there were crazy storms and it was actually cold. Today it's like 90 degrees and sunny. It was almost unbearable in the forest this morning. The monkeys were even too hot; they took a two hour siesta late this morning and just layed in the trees (it's actually super cute how they dangle their hands and feet over the sides of branches and swing them in the air). Work has been going well; my group is almost done with our assignment for now. We hope to get all the information we need within the week.

This week is a full moon again, and last night we went to the waterfalls again. They are too cool. They are crazy full of water because of all the recent rain. They had to close parts of the lower trail last week because they were flooded. This week also marks my two months here in Argentina. Crazy. I can't believe I'm 1/3 of the way done with working here. It all goes by so quickly, even if the days seem long; (I often lose the date or day of the week). There is a foot and a half long lizard that came out of hibernation and now lives outside our kitchen. He scurries away when you get too close, but he's pretty sweet. Coatis attacked our kitchen yesterday, and ate most of our bread, and Boi had to chase them out with a stick. In other words, spring is in full bloom, and heat, here.

  1. The weather here is starting to resemble fall! I'm not getting my hopes up for this to continue, but having it get down into the 50s at night is fantastic.

    Let's see some photos of the crazy wildlife you're living with!
