First looks at New Orleans


What amazed me was that many, many houses are still boarded up. I'm leaving tomorrow to join up with a group called Common Ground for a few days rebuilding houses and getting things up and going again down in the ninth ward. So there won't be any posts for a few days.

What is more amazing is to consider it is well into the third year since the hurricane occurred. I moved out after the hurricane. Every time I go back there is progress, but it is very slow.
