We had a good time on our trip and got to help alot of people out. There was 23 of us or so. I got to work on a couple's house named Carl & Amy hang doors for them, while others in the group work on some drywall finishing, hanging cabinets, & repairing the deck stairs.
Our home we stayed in where rather simple.. Kind of a large shed structure with bunks inside. We even had heat & A/C. We also had outdoor showers and porta-potties. So much for the comforts of home, but it was just like camping. We met alot of neat folks and heard lots of stories. Their perserverence is strong. One thing I was impressed with was with my host Amy. She managed to go out and dig through scraps from Huricane Katrina's aftermath and made wind chimes out of them to sell. What a great idea, just using whatevere you have at hand.
