  1. The valleys cases are beginning to decline, only 30 confirmed covid deaths today. Could the decline be due to less testing, only time will tell as hospitals aren’t seeing declines in patients.

     

    Now on to a more personal matter (sorry venting), had a Gm that got covid 3 weeks ago, he had been on a ventilator for a week and a half and kicked it on August 4th and sent home to recover. On August 7th, he was readmitted into the hospital and placed on a ventilator again. This morning, we lost a kind and generous soul,  RIP Gustavo, you fought a tough fight, till we meet again.

    Been talking a lot with my family down there. Hardly any flooding at all so far. Was much worse 2 summers ago.

    There was still major flooding, just not as bad as last June. The wind and rain collapsed the La Plaza Mall roof AEP stated today that all the power won’t be totally fixed until Friday.

  3. RGV is going to be in a very very very bad place in 2-3 weeks with hurricane Hanna tracking this way. There is going to be major flooding and random people helping others in the flood without mask.

     

    was busy with Hanna to post this last night, Hidalgo doesn’t post on saturdays. 341 people tested positive in Cameron with 8 deaths.

    Whoever is in charge down there needs to shut that shit down right now. Cameron was able to do the beach restrictions so why is Hidalgo allowing that to go on?

    Judge Cortez did a shelter in place that would take effect yesterday,  Wednesday 7/22, Abbott’s office declared that he had “no enforcement mechanism”. Abbott has completely handicapped the leaders of south Texas, allowing this pandemic to run rampant.

    You are paying attention so is there any idea of whether the large death numbers include people coming from Mexico to get treated? The death percentage is way too high for their population and number of cases.

    that said, the RGV seems to be a clusterfuck. Corpus isn’t far behind. We are back up in new cases the last 2 days after going down for 3 days. Hopefully this is the July 4th spike and next week we will start going down again.

    They aren’t giving a direct correlation of Mexican nationals vs American citizens on these numbers. This is a photo I took of the Alamo Flea Market today, it doesn’t really change my mindset that these cases are all correlated to the valley region.

    I’ve seen similar reports from that same facility but haven’t posted it here b/c I couldn’t confirm them through credible sources.  Journalists need to step up on this b/c there’s probably some truth to it.  

    If that is true, there is going to be a hell storm as this is outside their facility and has been circling the internet this past weekend.

    If you aren't looking for ambiance and just quality food one of my favorites was always White Sands Restaurant in Port Isabel. Lower prices and damn good fried seafood just has a small town diner feel. 

    Joes oyster bar in PI, hidden gem with great food and cheap.

    Damn. Have a trip next Monday to So Padre. House on the beach. Any word over in Cameron County or how So Padre looks?

    Cameron is averaging 3-400 cases a day. Tomorrow will be a large bump as they don’t report cases on Sunday’s. I recommend not going to any of the beach bars (Clayton’s).
