Team Ted

by Rixie - last update: Aug 23, 2006

Ted (Wisconsin)
I'd like to introduce you to the members of my Habitat for Humanity team.

We worked together for a week in February 2006 in Chalmette, Louisiana, and they are the absolute BEST! I miss them a lot and hope to see them all again, possibly rebuilding the houses we worked on.

In this photo, our team leader, Ted, works on the daily lists and reports.
Joan (Virginia) and Joyce (Georgia)
Joanie and Joyce perch in the back of a pickup truck. ("Watch those bumps, driver!")
Sheila (California)
Sheila checks her messages during a break. (She later returned to Chalmette for another volunteer week with Habitat in the summer of 2006.)
Laura (Illinois)
Laura demonstrates what it's like to be placed on a pedestal. She and I were tentmates as well as teammates.
Tani and Adam (Michigan)
Adam and Tani explain the physics of hardhat jousting.
Samantha (West Virginia)
A pensive Samantha looks toward the future...or at least to the next job site.
Abby (West Virginia) and Debbie (Georgia)
Abby and Deb share a laugh as they wait for the bus to arrive.
David (Virginia)
Dave takes a breather in the doorway of the job site.

 Fantastic tips. I'm so ready for the ghost tour and tour of the City of the Dead. What a wonderful intro to New Orleans.

 Ummm Ummmm. Those food tips are splendid. I love NO cookery. :) And, that's a great B&B tip, too.

 Great page. Like your restaurant tips. Bring back fond memories especially Burboun St.
