Hike for Katreena
We've planted over 1300 trees!
The October 27th planting of 99 trees, sponsored
by Mr Handyman, has put us over the 1000-tree mark
and since then we've planted 300 more.
That's more than halfway to our goal of 2175 trees.
Charlie London created
a video of the Mr Handyman event.
So far, so good. But can you help us reach our goal of 2175 trees
by sponsoring a tree, a grove or a forest

NOLA FUGEES.COM
NOLAFugees.com is a bi-weekly internet magazine based in New Orleans. Our motto: Nec Spe Nec Metu , "neither hope nor fear." We offer neither elegiac laments for the past nor bold visions of the future. We leave the “historic opportunity” for other outlets. We focus on covering New Orleans as it exists today. We're not anxious to “preserve the spirit of the city;” neither do we hold dear the dream of a “newer, better” New Orleans, desperate to forget. Rather, we choose to ride along the flood line, floating on an air mattress, drinking ruby red and vodkas, and checking things out, refugees in our own zip code.
