So, life is crazy... not that any of you don't know this, but yeah just a reminder.
I was suppose to start my camp job up in Michigan tomorrow, well I'm in New Orleans. And no, I didn't get lost on the interstate. It turns out the camp is having some budget changes, so they might have room for me in April. I found this out Thursday morning, just in time for my going away party. But then Friday night I was watching a movie with friends and found out a guy from their trip isn't going anymore. So since my plans for the week involved spending a lot of time with a beautiful girl, which I'm sad I don't get to see, I found out if I can go. They pulled some strings, and well here I am in New Orleans. If I understand it right we are gonna be working on dry walling a church. Fun thing about mission trip is you aren't sure until the week is over what you are actually doing.
But we spent some time at the French Quarter, and even saw the spot the levy broke. It's kind of crazy seeing where all this devastation happened, there is such life going on all around these remnants of the past. I think 1 out of 3 houses were broken down. But the rest just seemed like the people who lived in them just went on with life. Pretty weird, but I guess not any different than packing for Michigan but ending up in New Orleans.
