GREAT coverage Jack - for those of us far away, we don't understand the local scene, and appreciate your fair/balanced approach in just bringing us the news. I'm not gonna pile on Ms. Noem, but her get-ups and dramatic presence always confused me. I get that 'bosses' should be observing/visiting the teams to assess the situation - but her enjoyment of the camera's attention was a distraction for sure.

I'd like to meet Sheriff Cleveland one of these days. Maybe there's a way we can buy his duty team some coffee or some grub one night when they're on duty. I like his thinking.

Thanks again - great stuff.

Great praise, considering the source, David - Thank you!

Sheriff Cleveland, whom I (admittedly) identify with as a former resident of the rural border areas of South & West Texas, has invited me to visit his county (which I have so far been unable to do, to my regret).

I hope to correct that sometime in the future.

In the meantime, I will continue to provide a voice to the too-often-invisible residents of the rural Texas Border & West Texas communities who, in my opinion, deserve a better shake in the National and Texas media than they have been receiving.

-Abrazos!
