It frustrates me to no end what this government is up to. I felt bad leaving but am glad to be home. <BR/><BR/>As far as going down there, you could do it for pretty cheap. What I would recommend is going down and volunteering for Habitat for Humanity. They are very organized and get a lot done. For $100 a week you can stay at their “camp” I would love to go, but it won’t be till, like maybe, spring after the guide is printed. I would love to have company.<BR/><BR/>My airfare from Portland was only $240 total. I had to spend for at least one meal a day for the two of us but it didn’t cost too much, rest of the meals I had in my little kitchen. The rental was something I got on Craig’s list ($330 for the week). It was ok—no windows, but in an awesome building.<BR/><BR/>New Orleans was an intense and moving experience--I would love to go again and try to help.--SuzanneSuzanne C Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03286053083062642522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7698031704006116404.post-25030048045516519652007-10-26T11:20:00.000-07:002007-10-26T11:20:00.000-07:00Hey Suze! you are a champion for your cause!
