The Crawford Peace House is shown in Crawford, Texas, Monday, Aug. 22, 2005. With only $3 in the bank, things looked pretty grim for the Crawford Peace House two weeks ago. The telephone had been cut off for nonpayment. The co-founders used their own money for the mortgage payment and electric bill. Then Cindy Sheehan arrived. The grieving California mother's quest for a meeting with President Bush inspired more than $150,000 in donations to the Crawford Peace House since Sheehan started a makeshift campsite Aug. 6 along the road to Bush's ranch. Not only are the phones back on, but the group plans to pay off its mortgage. (AP Photo/LM Otero) Email Photo Print Photo

Boots that belonged to Army Spc. Casey Sheehan, son of activist Cindy Sheehan, are seen at a news conference at the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) offices in Philadelphia Monday Aug. 22, 2005. Casey Sheehan was killed in Iraq in 2004. The boots, which were a pair Casey Sheehan had in Iraq, are being returned to Cindy Sheehan after being part of the 'Eyes Wide Open' national travelling anti-war exhibit created by the AFSC, a branch of the pacifist Quaker church.
