I'm going back

I haven't posted this yet - but I'm going back to New Orleans in January! It's through Seattle Works again. Patrick Kelley and I are going to co-lead a group of 12. We'll be volunteering through Hands on New Orleans.

My friend Susanna has already signed up and I'm thrilled to be able to share this experience with her.

It'll be different than the last two times I've been down there. But I'm sure it will create a nice trifecta of an experience. And, as I've said before, it's a situation I've become incredibly passionate about. I can't imagine not going down again.

(but I might try to save up vacation for a non-volunteering vacation after this!)

Spent 4 weeks helping out along the LA coast (Biloxi and Homer) after Katrina. Just went back their with the Nordic Myst and took an adventure sail trip out to Horn Island and other channel islands. What a great sailing adventure. Went swimming with the wild dolphins and grilled fresh caught shrimp on the beach. I am looking to plan another adventure to these islands later in the spring with a group of other folks I met through helping out at Katrina. If you have an interest, drop me a like at Nordic.Myst2@gmail.com.
