Thaw before reheating.

Rawlins (foreman for the property being built next door) dug this trench between our houses today with the backhoe. This is where the pipe to the storm sewer will be laid. Both of our homes will tap into the line to help with drainage. Paul and I gawked at this for awhile this afternoon. We don’t know how he managed to fit the backhoe between the houses, much less manuver it around the down spout, miscellaneous pipes and lines, and the sides of the houses. Serious skill!

Regular dishes on life in New Orleans, historic home renovation, raising kids, completing a PhD, travel near and far, global concerns, and health issues.
You know the story, right? International health... work all over the place... drag my kids around in sacks through villages in Central America... yadda yadda. I decided to go for another degree, so in 2004 we moved to New Orleans with no intention of staying. Then Katrina. And then *blink*blink* New Orleans is a completely different place and we just can't leave. Suddenly I'm on TV talking about immigrants and health and Paul is starting a company. Or two. His side is high-tech, mine is community health and our lives are yearly evacuation, regular celebrations, and nonstop work here, there, and everywhere. Our door is always open. I only ask that if you decide to go ahead and make yourself that mint julep, you make one for me, too.
We strive to make our life our argument.
