I made it to TX, going to be in Crawford bright and early in AM.
I'm in an undisclosed location B-), about 20 miles outside of Crawford.

My daughter and I finished our 1000 mile drive a little while ago.

I talked to two lovely women at the Crawford Peace House today.
Desiree, this morning and Burnet this evening. They have given me some general updates.

Desiree told me about the lousy weather, Cindy going to a B and B to rest up and the imminent arrival of 1000 crosses to be placed at the site.

Burnet told me that many people are showing up and the Peace House is welcoming and directing them to the site.

I didn't have access to the internet last night, and drove all day today, so you all are probably more up to date with the goings on around here than I am.

I will be resting my tired traveler's bones tonight and will be at the site bright and early tomorrow morning.

I'd love to hear the latest from DU, I've really missed you guys.

And,I don't regret for a minute that I've come out here. I'm raring to go! MKJ

You are taking a stand for many of us who don't have the "freedom" to be there.

Love to you and your daughter. :hug: I'm right here, with you!!!
