New Orleans...First Visit

We just arrived home from New Orleans this morning. We had a great time with our friends Mike and Susanne. They showed us around New Orleans...the good and the not so good. It was quite a shock to the system to see so much devastation still from Katrina. You don't realize until you are there going up and down street after street seeing the same thing. Rich or poor, black or white, young or old, it affected everyone.


We were able to go to the front door of this house. It was almost to overwhelming to look inside. To see someones memories on the wall, clothes, toys, and a porch swing in the front room.

This is a typical marking on a house, stating who checked the house, and what they found.

The water level was to the roof of this house, but you can see where the water settled.
