New Orleans
emily and i went down to New Orleans this past weekend to help my friend kristin move out of her house. She is now working for a missions organization called, Adventures in Missions, and is now living in an RV with two other AIM staff.
....it's amazing how parts of new orleans are devastated, and other parts look pretty much completely normal...
one thing i realized was that a lot of the damage is not as visual--especially when the water has receded... the water may have left, but the mold stayed...we didn't want to roll the windows down or get out where the mold was so prominent, so some of these pics are through the window.

french quarter

you can tell that they are still working on repairing the roof of the superdome.
Emily and Lauren volunteering at NCC
ms. emily taught hand drums at NCC this week.
lauren has been teaching dance to the kids every friday.
lauren never ceases to amaze me with kids...i keep trying to watch and learn...
they seem to really like beating on these tin cans, donated by my favorite vegan chef, elli. way to go, rainbow...
em, you're looking good. thanks.
