WOW What a CAMPSITE! Huge tent and MANY PIX
I couldnt believe how huge that tent is on the new site. It was so cool tonight too! We were treated to some really great music, and two men who marched with Martin Luther King Jr. Also more Gold Star Family moms, as well as an Iraq War Veteran who all spoke on the stage. It was incredible!

After an eight foot ditch, this is like paradise. Kids and dogs have room outside the tent. Much less traffic. More beautiful as well. Hope yall like the pictures. And so sorry if others have been shown, I just got home and wanted to post em, so havent looked.










and a few more to come in a bit..

Glad to see you all are under some cover!

Thanks for going to all the work you've put in, BTW, TexasLady. You've been great at keeping us informed throughout the protest. :)

It IS much better than the ditch by the side of the road. What a change from the way it looked yesterday at noon when we left.

I hate to ask, but is my name on that poster? I was down there with MuseRider and DancingBear.

Thanks for the pictures!

And besides, some of neighbors won't be talking to him for a loooooooong time.

13. Thanks for the great pics. Looks like a great spot and much bigger than
the last site. I respect all those at Camp Casey and believe in what they are there for. I also think it's important to recognize the individual (uncle of Mr. Northern) who allowed the new site on his property. It takes a lot of courage to stand up for your beliefs-especially when it's opposite from your neighbors.

42. Huh? Doesn't that sort of ....you know...raise a red flag?
because I was also told Shrubya used the same tent for his fundraiser.

So....the neocon's supporters "lent" the anti-war movement a huge, gigazillion dollar tent, complete with indoor street-lights?

So much for "the simple message" that Cindy has (successfully) been sending.

I don't mean to dampen anyone's enthusiasm, and maybe my first instincts about this are just a result of having worked way too hard in the past 24 hours. But I'm going to have to ponder this some. It just doesn't feel right.

:shrug: ...but that's just me.

Im thinking it was just rented from somewhere, and happened to be the same one or same kind, that shrub used. I dont think its a big deal, he was just saying that he had heard(just rumors of course) that someone on our side with a lil money might be helping things along behind the scenes.

OKAY, now moving forward, wow! I'm impressed. And what a sweet job you did on the signage for DU, can you still add names? If so, please add mine. You've been a terrific correspondent on the ground in Crawford for the rest of us.

Compared to all the volunteers there who spend so much time there, I feel sorta guilty that I dont do much at all. I can never stay very long when I go, but always want to give major credit to so many people who make this all work. The volunteers are what make it all happen!

You really have done a great job of documenting and sharing with all of the rest of us that could not be there the day to day events in words and pics. Cheers to you!

By the way, it takes each one of us in each and every way. That is what makes grassroots organizations work. That is what makes a movement and you've been in on the ground floor. I'm sure you've helped in many ways doing whatever you could.

Do you think when Dubya sees the "Taj Mahtent" as he tops the hill he might have another mishap on his bike?

Thanks so much to the kids for doing this. I really wish we could go in person. Instead, all our names are there to represent a silent majority. I don't think * and his bunch really believe that this much of the country truly is opposed to him and this war.

37. Awesome pics!
Thanks again to you and your daughters for making the posters. :toast: Alternating colors makes the names so easy to read. :thumbsup:

The tent is HUGH!!!

How far do you live from Crawford?

Looking forward to seeing the rest of the pictures.

Great job, TexasLady and family! :grouphug:

38. TexasLady
Thank you so much, I see my name and almost feel like I'm there..

The lady in the orange and white stripped shirt looks like my sister from the back, it better not be her I'm going to her house tomorrow and we live in Illinois.

Now that's what I call a TENT.

41. Put a sign on TOP of the tent...for reading from 'Air Force One'
i.e., whatever helicopter Bush comes in on. That would be one way to get a message to the man in the bubble.

45. great pics, but one quick tip
when taking a photo of something really close up, hit the button with the flower on it or dial or whatever your camera has with the flower, its the macro for close up, it would make pic #4 be focused.

Thanks for the photos!
And thats a great tent! Looks like you even got power in it! I would realy like to thank the guy who is letting you guys use the land!

how much money has been taken in so far and how much is needed to keep this movement rolling?

Anybody have any idea?

that folks are getting served free food and drinks three times a day. And that alone must be a ton! As for everything else, I just dont know. I feed a family of seven three times a day, and that can HURT!

86. Hi jean
I dont know how it is being managed, but I seem to get better gas mileage on my ol car than usual. Im sure its the long country roads. If it gets kind of critical I just stay home, which is good in that I can take care of things Ive been sort of neglecting at the homefront. My son works, so that helps a bunch too.

Im lucky too that my husband keeps my car in great shape. Hes not only a great computer repair guy, he also an ex mechanic!

But that is very thoughtful of you :)

Great pictures, TexasLady! That is really some tent. With lighting, no less! It looks like the grounds are set up for a very elegant event. Everyone's sure come a long way from a ditch by the road! I can just imagine how thrilled Cindy will be when she returns from California and sees what Camp Casey has evolved into.

Thanks for sharing these photos and for putting that great sign together.

64. It's fabulous
I am so glad that there is this accommodation and the toidies and lights and all.

Btw, tonight Mike Malloy said that the Peace House has received so many contributions that they were able to pay off their $90,000 mortgage. I have no idea if this is true. But if it is, I couldn't be happier. To know that contributions are that deep for the peace movement encourages me no end. It gives me joyful goosebumps.

I realize that Cindy's message is one of simplicity. But the numbers are growing and people need to be safe. The menacing has been escalating. So this really is a godsend from the perspective of safety. It may be lavish compared to the ditch, but it's still really quite simple given the daytime temperatures.

Enough of my blatherings!

75. Bush's biggest mistake
was not talking to Cindy Sheehan the minute she asked. Regardless of what happens in Crawford, the meeting of so many anti-war protesters in one place and their staying together for at least a few days and in some cases, weeks, will help build a movement for peace. This is bigger than the movement of protests against the Vietnam War especially since we have the internet to back us up. For every protester in Crawford, there are hundreds of people willing to stand at vigils and be counted for peace. This is the kind of moment that causes me to believe there is a God, that a Peaceful, Loving Presence exists, and that humans can be imbued with the power of that God, that Peaceful, Loving Presence. May that Peaceful, Loving Presence bless everyone at Crawford and guide them on their mission.

And what a thrill to see my name on a DU poster in this event of historic proportions.

Would love to see more freedom & peace loving souls under that tent, though. The population looks a bit sparse, but maybe they're elsewhere at the time?

BTW, I thought the idea from the poster above of putting a sign on top of the tent is an excellent suggestion.

140. WooHoo! I see me! Great photos!!!
How I wish I could be there for real. If I was still living back home, I could have worked it out.

At least, being on the poster makes me feel like I'm there a little bit.

Keep up the great work everybody!

141. I saw my name
and got so excited. I called my daughter and said, "I'm there, I'm there." I know it is a little tiny thing on the scheme of things, but I so want to be there and life just isn't allowing me to. But seeing my name made my day. Thank you for posting that and for bringing us all down there who want so desperately to be there. Kicked and nominated.

:kick:

145. Nice sign of the DU supporters...
I didn't put my name on this one because we signed a big card for Cindy at our vigil. The camp has probably received it by now.

147. How do we get our name
added to the list? It looks full so there may not be room but just wondering how and when that list was started?
I haven't posted much lately but I would've liked to have my name added.

156. Great pix, Texas Lady! Thank you so much for being there.
I added my name to your thread yesterday, but it was after you had left. Can you add "Ilsa" and "Apache" now if you have room? Apache is a signed up member who doesn't post, but reads DU every day. A real HHH liberal.
