Justin Long - Nov 17

The work-week is over and I just took the time to sit down and write about my experience. This is my first trip to Louisiana. It is good to see that some areas have recovered pretty well, such as Slidell. But Chalmette, and other areas closer to New Orleans are still very damaged. They really do need alot of help still. They estimate that it will take several years to fully recover. The trip has been a great success. Our crew really worked hard. I encourage anyone reading this to consider volunteering some time to help out down here. Giving our time and efforts provides much needed hope to the people here. Let us not forget that every little bit helps.

Peace and love, Justin
