Images of A First Day at Work

There is an eloquent post on the CA website about our trip to-date; I'll update this blog (with a bunch of student writing) tonight when there is more time. Wifi access continues to be scarce, so it involves going off-site.

Herewith, though, a bunch of pictures of us as we worked on a sweltering Day 1. Groups did different things, from removing debris and leveling a future-house site to digging post holes to hold the six-foot beams that will support houses to nailing on siding. Along the way, there was plenty of time to talk with local residents, hearing their stories both of Katrina and of life.
