It's whiny time.

And not wine time which would be more enjoyable. Instead it's the time when the people start getting all whiny because they start to get a taste of sunshine and bikes and warmth, and then before they know it the rain is back. And, I have to do tons of extra wiggling to make them smile because they get so mopey and so grumpy and they need their cry towels.

JW is not whining right now though because he's building a bike park in Panama where he will soon be enjoying a week of warm surf and beach life! The bike park build has been going really well and amongst other things he's been hanging out with Sloths, good people, and lots of iguana eggs (the dirt there is full of them!). He also got to take a day to see the panama canal which, is pretty incredible. especially if you're a digger (check out the excavator they used in the pictures!!). I'm really hoping he brings me a sloth. I'm pretty sure we'd make great friends.

The short one keeps trying to ride her bike and returning home sooner than usual and unable to get her shoes off because of the shivering. It's cold outside but clearly that mid winter trip to the islands reset her seasonomiter and she thinks its summer. As long as she gets the crazy out somehow I guess we are good.

When the tall one is out of town we go to the coffee/bike shop once or twice a week where, if the weather is nice I get to lay on the patio in the sun while Anna works. She seems to think its good for socializing me but you and I really know she's the one who needs to be socialized. Aside from our adventures into the big city of Hood River I've just been doing the usual chilling, eating, wiggling, chasing people on trails and swimming. Life is currently supreme aside from the current challenges of getting things from the top shelf. Meaning, we miss Jason... A lot.
