first day

We are waiting for our first dinner at the church. Although we were all exhausted from the long trip, we managed to get up in time for breakfest and our morning meeting. Working in the house was an exciting experience especially considering that the houses we were working on were for two sisters that lost their house from Katrina. We did a lot of painting since the house are close to being opened up again. Looking at the different houses on the way to the worksite, we can still see the effects of Katrina. The roads were tough to travel on and a lot of the houses are in no condition to live in. It is exciting to have our dinner now as we get ready for tomorrows work.
