Today was our last day (Gabe and the Babes) working at Beth's house. The work was all very hard and tedious but also satisfying.I am really looking forward to going back to Al and Bernice's house tomorrow, that will be really fun to see all the additional work other people have put into it. Today we only had a half day of work so we could quickly go back to the church, shower, and head off the the IMAX theater to see Hurricane on the Bayou I thought it was really interesting,including the cheesy reenactments, but overall a good movie. Tomkorrow we will all work together to help fix up a park, put in a swingset hopefully and clean it up. I am really looking forward to tomorrow because what I think New Orleans really needs is a friendly environment that will hopefully attract the people come back. So far I have really enjoyed this trip and think New Orleans is still the coolest place to be throughout all the destruction.
