Bush's Texas ranch, anti-war protester Cindy Sheehan said on Thursday she planned to take her vigil on the road next month and shadow Bush in Washington.
Sheehan, the mother of a soldier killed in Iraq who has become a symbol for the anti-war movement, returned to her camp outside Bush's ranch after going to California to care for her ailing mother.
"I'm glad to be back," she told reporters. "When I left, it didn't end. When I left, it thrived, it grew."
In contrast to the hundreds of supporters who turned out for earlier events, only a few dozen were on hand on Thursday to witness an emotional Sheehan -- in a made-for-television ceremony -- place her son's military boots next to a small cross at the camp's symbolic gravesite for America's war dead."
