Has @utrgv produced an app that helps visitors how to find buildings on their Edinburg campus? All the buildings look the same.

Sadly, I do not live in @PharrTx but I just spoke to the librarian and he said their blazing fast Internet works well in the south side parking lot. So, I can now upload our news videos super fast from my car, 24/7!!!!

Highlight of the week, for me, was meeting up with retired former Children’s Defense Fund-RGV executive director Luisa Saenz, at the Valley View-UTSA awards ceremony. Wow, what an honor. Like being in the company of Valley royalty.

Missed this earlier but @SteveTaylorRGG has a deeper dive on the South Texas reaction to the HHS Medicaid STAR/CHIP procurement that woodlands drop three legacy children’s hospital-affiliated health and among other changes affecting coverage of 1.8M low-income enrollees. #txlege

Some shipping news (w/apologies to Annie Proulx): I'm taking a buyout from @dallasnews, setting sail Feb. 1. Yes, I'll miss tracking politicians, trying to parse what their laws and budgets mean in real folks’ lives. To me, that’s one of our craft’s high, noble callings. 1/5

Just been mailed a glossy flyer for the @CityofMcAllen’s MXLAN festival. Flyer says Duncan Woods will top the bill at an international economic summit. But it should read Duncan Wood, my neighbor from Kent. There’s no “s” on the end of Wood. Will be great to see him again.

As per the Progress Times, counsel to Mission CISD told school board members not to talk publicly about the demolition of nationally listed Roosevelt Auditorium. In other words don’t engage with their bosses, the voters, the taxpayers.

During McAllen Day at the Capitol, @McAllenEDC CEO Keith Patridge visited the offices of numerous lawmakers. Every office had at least 3 staff members from the RGV. “If we could bring them home, Austin would shut down,” Patridge said, at RGV State of Real Estate Forum.

Hope Monica De La Cruz makes a decision soon on whether she’ll appear at Pharr Chamber’s CD 15 candidate forum on Oct. 27. I’m supposed to co-moderate with UTRGV’s Veronica Gonzales. If she’s not going to show up there’s a good journalism conference in Austin I’d like to attend.

Pleased to report Reynosa Mayor Carlos Peña Ortiz is delivering on his campaign promise to fix the flooding. His drainage project on Mahuatlan in the colonia Marte R. Gómez is not finished yet but it’s already working. During the heavy rains last week our house did not flood!

Hidalgo County is a Democratic stronghold. Yesterday I had a knock on the door from a GOP campaign worker. He left literature for CD 15 candidate Monica de la Cruz. In the 6 years I have lived at my address in McAllen I have never had a visit from a Democratic campaign worker.

Bumped into RGV GOP stalwart Hollis Rutledge today. He said he knows he will get flak from his Democratic friends in South Texas but he could not resist this quip: “After the November midterms the Donkey will have to be listed as an endangered species.”

One of the fans that keeps the Mexican visitors cool while they wait to cross the Hidalgo-Reynosa Bridge is not working. It would be great if you could fix it, McAllen Bridge Board. It’s 97 degrees this afternoon and summer’s coming.

We’re hearing that @GovAbbott and Gov. Cabeza de Vaca have just about reached an agreement that Tamaulipas will inspect northbound trucks. News conference in Weslaco to announce the deal this afternoon. So DPS inspections in South Texas can stop.

@NPRextra Can tell you when many people in the Rio Grande Valley of stopped listening. Five years ago when the Diocese of Brownsville sold the KHID and KJJF radio stations. Left around 3 million people (both sides of the Rio Grande) without over-the-air NPR. Very sad.

What year did you start listening to NPR? How did you become introduced?
