NEW APP TO HASTEN BORDER CROSSING TO BOQUILLAS

The holidays will bring a lot of visitors to Boquillas. There is a new system to check people back in to the US. It can be somewhat time consuming but there is a way that you can check yourself in while you wait in line. Download the App: CBP ROAM. There is now wifi at the port of entry, and if you have this App on your mobile phone you can check in, scan your passport, check a few boxes yes or no, then be approved for entry. This is new to the Boquillas Port of Entry; I was the first to use it and it worked fine. The key is to already have the APP loaded, and filled out with your details before arriving at the POE.

On October 31, 2022, James G. Craig III passed, after 69 years of vibrant life, in his Terlingua, Texas, home. Beloved son, brother and uncle, Jim was a friend to all in need. A seeker who never forgot his roots, Jim brought a certain flair to tradition and was the favorite “big kid” to all the children in his life. Friends and family from Pittsburgh to Terlingua, and many nooks and crannies in between, give thanks for our memories of Jim: lifelong Pittsburgh sports fan, avid road-tripper, groove-enthusiast, yard-artist and lover of life. In his memory, may we all find beauty in the odd, art in the everyday, and love in each other.  (From the Big Bend Sentinel)

From the Editor – on December 3, a recount of votes for the Precinct 2 County Commissioner position was completed.  It took 3 hours to count 1,161 votes and the results were an exact match.  This speaks to the accuracy of the Brewster County system of scanning all paper ballots and providing a voter-verified paper trail so that recounts and audits can be smoothly accomplished.  Sara Colando won the position by 13 votes.  Every vote matters!

From Sara Allen Colando – “The election recount was completed today, and there are no changes to the election results as canvassed.  I'd like to thank my opponent Mr. Chiles for running an honorable and hardworking campaign.  And thank you to all my supporters!  I look forward to working hard for you, and everyone who calls Brewster County home.” ‑‑Sara Allen Colando
