NOLA: Night 1: What I hope to get out of this trip

We landed in New Orleans. By the time we got into the rental van and on the road it was dark and disorienting. I’m excited to see New Orleans in the day time. I look forward to Field Work and I.D.ing plants and contributing to the existing data set. I’m also excited to listen to local jazz artists & experience all the sights, sounds & tastes of this incredibly culturally rich city. I hope to talk to locals about what it’s like to live here and their experiences. I know I’ll walk more informed, humbled, and proud of the work my group and I did. 

Now for some dinner at Brick Oven Cafe…
