Just talked to Basil on site in Crawford, Texas. Currently there are about 100 folks there helping to set up. They have not received word about the caravan arrival in Waco yet. JimRob is riding with the caravan. She thinks it might get to Crawford around 1:00 p.m.
Basil says the stage is set up, the sound system is excellent and they have hung the most beautiful banners overnighted by W04Man on the stage. A big thanks for the banners, they are much appreciated!
Someone arrived early and hung yellow ribbons everywhere.
They have an American flag that is about 50 feet by 40 feet. Children of military personnel serving in the Middle East have written notes to their parents on the stripes of this flag. A very touching thing to behold.
The HOT Chapter booth is being unloaded right now. The will sell buttons made by Angelwood to help off set costs.
Someone rented the Community Center for our use so there is access to AC. However, they also have 10 tents set up. And there is a Moonwalk for the kiddos.
To top everything else there is BBQ on the grill! Basil is the official taster and says it is great!
That is all the news I have at the moment. It is hard to get a cell phone connection to Crawford but when I hear more I will try to update everyone.
This should be on the front page of every
newspaper in this country.
I am so proud to be an American.
Just a teaser. John is interviewing Col. Cowan. I suppose Crawford will be next.
Hopefully well, we'll see.
Maybe Kasich can make up for the ones before him today.
I thought that was a great comment as well Jonny
Ted's been around since the 60's and is a hard rock icon. You never heard of Ted Nugent and the Amboy Dukes?

The FOX is in the hen house AND making friends instead of eating dinner PING
GREAT pix. Thanks.
What if we picked a week close to the Ratings race and DID NOT WATCH FOX?
You have a beautiful daughter, centexan. And, obviously, she's had great role models. Thanks to you and your daughter for supporting our troops and our President. Those of us who couldn't be in Crawford appreciate your representing us!
I'm surprised PETA hasn't come on yet to complain about horse abuse.
My question is how is FOX benefiting by purposely
helping to keep the President's poll numbers low?
If there were true representation of this event today,
the American public would see the support that both
the war in Iraq and the President have.
W04Man, I believe this is one of your signs.
LOL...that made me smile some more! Had a great time wish you had been there!
Way to go, zlala! You did it! Great picture too, thank you!
Sounds like a civil war. This will give the enemey hope.
This will put more energy into terrorist's camp.
