Houma Relief Work

Here are some picture that we took while I was in Louisiana this weekend. We were assigned to go to the Houma, La. area to help those in need. We packed up our chainsaws and my ATV. I rode down with Leroy while Paul and James rode down together later. On Saturday, there were about 12 of us in a crew that was formed from the Gardendale, Leeds, Gadsden and Birmingham 2nd Wards. I saw other members from the Locust Fork Branch as well. We had 5 work orders to complete. We did most of them before 4:00 PM on that day. One we could not complete because of the equipment and material that were required.


Here is our abode for two nights - Leroy and I.

This was our first project that we had to work on. It called for a tarp to put on the roof but we saw a dangerous tree so we asked the home owner and the neighbor if we could cut it.

This is located in Dulac - Coastguard Rd.

We couldn't find work at the street where we were suppose to go so we looked for some trees to cut down.

This was our final project on Sunday at Shrimper's Row in Dulac before we left to go home.

List of people in our crew:
Leroy, Jason, Paul , James, Donnie, Marla, Douglas, Craig, Eric, Brother Williams, Charlie and Eric.
