Hurricane Katrina Disaster Relief Trip
September 6 - 10, 2005

Essentially all belongings that were in the strom surge are being taken
to the street to
be hauled away as trash. Black mold, putrid food, soaked furniture and bedding
all make the job hard and often very smelly!
We did some door-to-door supply delivery down the streets, mostly trying
to find
residents that can't get out to the supplies. These folks pictured here
all have transportation
but it's our initial tour of the area. We found the areas that needed help
pretty quickly.
This street has several dumpster trucks and heavy equipment trying to get
the trash
out of the way.
Some houses are a total loss.
As you get closer to the ocean, you get greater and greater damage.
This house shows a sense of humor in their very serious warning. Who would
dare take
something when the place is gaurded by an inflatable doll?
