And as my dad would say " without a pot to pee in "
Its amazing how much info is at their disposal when you cross the border legally, when we changed trucks last year they new it . The guard asked us if
this was going to be the vehicle we would be using now for our Mex trips. I replied we sold the other one, the family had grown out of it.
We had a cactus skeleton from our ranchito in Az on the dash for decoration and a Tecate guard carefully reached in, picked it up and said it was a
rare endangered Baja species to which I replied of course its endangered in Baja, Its from Northern Arizona

Ha!
All this discussion has made me wonder what the border Xing agent would say if my passport/passport card/SENTRI card/drivers license were lost or
stolen, and I tried using my original, cardstock, computer batch-punched "certificate of live birth" paperwork, issued by County of San Diego
"Department of Public Health" 50+ years ago?
For a photo ID- do they accept CostCo AmEx cards?
Hey, the certificate cost my parents $1/each back in the day, and mom ordered 2 (receipt also still in the original mailing envelope). And that was
pricey back then- I know, cuz I also have their annual tax filings for those years, showing my USMC dad's meager income!
My dear departed mom, being a super-organized military parent (copies of vaccinations, school reports, medical records etc. were required at new
schools for all 4 kids, with every transfer) kept these files up til her death. Not sure where the 2nd certificate wound up, probably buried in a DoD
archive somewhere, proving another dependent had entered the world.
My baptismal record is also with those docs- I bet those would be respected in Baja!
RIP mom- and thanks for the memories! They may come in handy some day...

WOW BajaBoy, I too, researched that birth certificates were enough, and they are according to your research and mine as well, but I certainly don't
want no freaking hassles, thanks for letting us know!
You got a good point there, Dennis, "they know the regulations", "it's one of their methods to engage you".... |

Geeezzz, really? I cross at Tecate often, no issues. Sometimes they send me to secondary because I'm pulling a trailer or forgot to take off my
sunglasses or the computer flagged me or because I have 2 cats and 2 dogs I might have a bag of pet food contraband (ok, I made that last part up).
I guess I'm fortunate enough to still be in the "Baja Spirit when I get to the border and I don't get needlessly hassled there, or maybe I don't have
a "where is your warrant" chip on my shoulder....or maybe I don't sweat the small stuff.....

Congress makes the laws. The Prez signs them. Congress is a joke primarily due to the House.
Just hoping for an informed citizenry!!
