November part I

Since Camp Hope changed its work week schedule, we had a an evening and a day to hang out in New Orleans. This was great, because Tim hadn't been to NOLA yet and he was able to see the city before jumping into work. None of us can get over the whole "it's ok to take your drink TO GO" quote. Of course, we stopped by Cafe DuMond for some treats and fancy coffee. Mmmm. Photo: Dan and Tim trying to dust off all of the powdered sugar.

November part II WORK!

It was great to work with old friends from the last trip. We were a well oiled machine. Not to mention, Tim knows how to crunch numbers and measurements like a mad man. The rest of us just stood around and mumbled while we acted like we were trying to figure out the math. Especially when it came to the top angles.

November Part III

November - New Orleans One Brick

May - TRIP ONE. New Orleans with One Brick

I got an email from One Brick about a trip to New Orleans in May.
Something about just grabbed be. (I think I needed a break from the 'ol rat-race)
I announced to Dan that we were going to NOLA and that I was booking our flight in the next 10 minutes.
I don't think it really hit him that we were going until we got in the cab and headed to SFO.

It's one of the best 'Last Minute' things we've ever done. We worked our tails off, helped a bunch of folks out and met a bunch of great people from all over the country. We worked on three homes in one week, ...all in St. Bernard Parish. Here's a blog where other folks wrote about their week + pictures: One Brick Blog
