Debris-strewn street lined with bare and damaged trees, a damaged house in the background, cardboard boxes and branches scattered on the roadside, and signs reading "Got Water" and "We Buy Damaged Properties."

Metairie and New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina - 10.23.05

A view down Aviators St. - No one else was seen or heard in this neighborhood. We still didn't hear any birds chirping or flying here. Also, I should comment that many of these neighborhoods have no electrical power restored. The only thing you see here are homes with windows are some doors open to dry out contents. Dad could smell the mold from our vehicle as I walked down the street taking photographs.
