After that we came back to Common Ground and did some digging and pulling out cement from the ground and weeding a garden. I think we'll all sleep good tonight!! Oh and not to mention, some of us have sunburns from working in the 80 degree weather. Not to rub it in or anything :)
How natural are natural disasters? Are disasters equal opportunity or do some people suffer disproportionally due to income, race, ability, age, gender or other reasons? This blog serves as a collective place for the thoughts of students and faculty in the IS201 Disaster and Diversity course at Wartburg College as they participate in a service-learning course to New Orleans. The blog began with the 2011 IS201 Disaster and Diversity Course.

Good ole Iowa (and Wisconsin and Illinois) work ethic!
So today was a lot of manual labor. We started off the morning at the Cevron Tree Farm. We replanted approximately 200 seedlings that will grow for the next two years at this farm and then be transplanted to good homes around the city.
