Yes, this is a really old update, but my new buddies, Pat & Ted Baer, from Pennsylvania just sent some photos from my spring break in New Orleans.
Pat and Ted Baer on their annual service trip to New Orleans
Dan Skold has been living and working in New Orleans for the past 3 years, helping to rebuild New Orleans as a super intendant with Habitat for Humanity. At any given moment, Dan is responsible for 8 to 10 new builds. I got down to New Orleans earlier this spring to visit Dan and do a little new home construction on the side.

Dan was crippled this spring with a torn ACL playing soccer, but has since recovered enough to ride his bike across France for a little “pre-Tour” Tour. I’m fairly certain he just faked his injury to get a few extra days off of work.
See, he doesn’t even need those crutches. My two new favorite football teams after my trip to New Orleans? The Packers & the Saints. Who dat?!
