La Place

Today half of the Hamline crew traveled 40 minutes outside of New Orleans to work on a house in La Place.  We were given respirators and other safety equipment to use for the gutting of the house.  Most of our day was spent ripping down walls and disposing of debris.  Some of us also learned how to treat mold and worked to prep the walls for later reconstruction.  After a long day we were caked with dirt and other things but it was well worth it because we were able to see a huge difference from our group efforts.
