A lot of people would come, and they would look at their home for a day and just be so They couldn't deal with throwing away all their life like that, so they would tell the volunteer groups to just throw everything away. They didn't want to be there to see it so you're kind of rooting through these families' lives and photo albums and everything, and throwing it all away. |
Everything got piled on the floor. |
Houses were just picked up off their foundations and set back down. |
It kind of became a bit of a joke. A lot of the time you're down there you don't see anything being accomplished so you end up standing around looking at something and not doing anything and then still calling yourself a volunteer and ?Team Hero' n so it kind of became a joke upon ourselves. |
It was a lot different than I expected. |
It was more hands on. |
