Pilgrims of Protest in Crawford
This was at Counterpunch and was really interesting, an overview of a day waiting for Gaduh from the pen of Greg Moses, editor of the Texas Civil Rights Review.

Back down Morgan Road toward camp, I am beginning to get a sense of family. Here is Annie from the Louisiana delegation running an errand, and Diane Wilson is awake now speaking on the cell phone. She lifts a boot to wave hi, and I make a note: it's the left boot. Cindy Sheehan and the departing reporter exchange hugs.

The chalk tally where the crosses begin marks today's official tally at 1,841 killed in Iraq, 13,769 wounded. Next to that is a poster with thumbnails of the first 1,000 faces. While looking at these signs I can't help but notice the one right behind them: "Posted No Trespassing." It won't be too many days before the juxtaposition of these signs will define a conflict.
