planting

Saturday we went port forchoun to the estuary run by btnep. We went out on a boat to a six thousand foot landmass. We planted four thousand plants. I’m not going to lie the mosquitos were extremley irritating i got bit about one hundred times. Though we may have saved this land mass they said every thirty minutes we lose a football field of land. Because of this it kind of makes it seem like a losing battle.

first day

Today was our first day after a long day of delays. We worked in the fifth ward on delmaine st. I sanded and put up taping mud. Then painted a few doors and put primer on the brick porch outside. The people who lived on the street were very friendly. They would stop by and have conversations and one woman even offered us chicken and crawfish. Its interesting to see the culture and how friendly everyone is. Everyone seems to really appreciate our effortsm
