Twenty-four of us spent a week rebuilding a home in New Orleans. The owner, Verna Mae Martin, stands in the center in a red shirt. She has lived in this neighborhood all her life and wishes to stay here.

An elementary school in New Orleans is boarded shut, with no indication of ever re-opening. Very few of the original neighborhood residents have returned to the area, so schools and stores are still closed, too.

Many of the low-income neighborhoods in New Orleans are still in bad shape. About 90% of the houses are abandoned and there are still a lot of trash piles all over.

Even with a pretty head-dress, it’s still a mule. The French Quarter has numerous carriage rides available.

This guy was playing in a street band in the French Quarter – he has a great face for a tuba player.

“Sure, just let me warm up the swampboat first.”

This was in the marshland just outside of New Orleans.
