A Different Alaska by Robin Rosemond
NOLA March 5, 2011
It's a cloudy and cool morning in New Orleans. The day begins still and quiet except for the song birds. I've been staying with Jeanine and Uriah from Astoria. They bought a house in the 7th Ward. I'm helping to paint the interior, while we drink and eat like Kings and Queens. The house is a Shot Gun style. New Orleans is in a state of transformation and I believe buying a home here is a good idea. The houses are cheap. Yes, it's the hood. Someone was murdered in front of the house two nights ago. Yes, it's a tough town, but where else can you get a house for so little and still be in a cultural mecca? It's a great city and owning a small piece of it is treasure. I will see how it plays out. It's fun to look at houses.
