Our last stop was in Baytown at Floyds Mont Belvieu. It was a fantastic tour through East Texas. I met so many wonderful people and ate some delicious food along the way. It has been a privilege to visit communities all across Texas and learn more about our beautiful state.

I started my tour at the Alamo & ended it at San Jacinto. I'm a huge history buff, & I always enjoy it when I get to visit monuments & museums around Texas (& the world) & reflect on the rich history of our country & state. This bus tour has allowed me to do just that.

I held my press conference at the Spindletop Gladys City—Boomtown Museum in Beaumont. I had a great time with a family I met showing their kids around the museum…we watched the gusher go off together. I want one of those in my backyard but my wife, Jan, would probably disagree!

We then headed to Wooden Pallets Ltd. in Silsbee, where I got a tour of the facility & spoke with 100+ of their employees. They asked some great questions. I've always enjoyed learning how products are made & I've learned a lot about the lumber business while visiting East Texas.

I finished my evening in Jasper. I ate a delicious meal at Martin’s Mexican Restaurant and stopped at every table to encourage people to go vote. I also ran into a group of golfers from Montgomery County. We prayed together before dinner.

We popped into a gas station with a Whataburger attached to say hi to a few more folks & get out the vote! As we were filling up the 150-gallon tank with expensive Joe Biden gas, a girl with her mom at the station was looking at the bus—we took a photo & I gave her a special pin.

I then joined a bunch of friendly folks at 58 Music Cafe in Lufkin. The mayor & I got a photo in front of the Lufkin sign, as you can see I made the letter “i” to make the photo complete. It’s one of the photo ops in the city for people traveling through…a pretty cool idea.

Next, we stopped for lunch at County Seat Cafe in Groveton – I ordered the Philly cheesesteak, one of my all-time favorite foods, and it was the BEST I’ve ever had! There was a great turnout of Republican women who came to show their support.

The bus was making great time on the road, so I was able to stop at a coffee shop in Onalaska named Moon Does. I had time for a quick game of checkers. I haven’t played in years and forgot how much fun it is. While there, a few Polk County deputies stopped by to say hello.

Then, I made my way over to Trinity to tour a local business, the Patriot Trinity Steel Fabricators. I spoke to around 100 hardworking employees about the importance of voting. I also thanked them for their dedication to the job and showing up to the plant every day.

I then headed over to Nacogdoches to meet with the Nacogdoches GOP. It was a packed house! Everywhere I go, I meet people who have fled from blue states and moved to Texas.

In the afternoon, I needed my caffeine fix so I stopped by the Postmasters Coffee Co. in Jacksonville for an iced tea. There was a great crowd of people and the tea was delicious!

Next, I traveled over to Henderson to tour the West Fraser Lumber Mill. It was a sight to see – and especially impressive seeing a huge tree trunk get cut down into several 2x4s!

I started my East Texas tour in Longview at HATCO to take a tour of their facilities and meet the employees. HATCO manufactures both Resistol and Stetson hats, and they also make the hats our brave DPS officers wear. They produce around 7-8 thousand hats a week!

I was in Lubbock last Wednesday for a town hall forum with my friend, Senator Charles Perry. It was great to see so many people out for the event and discuss the issues that matter most to rural Texans.
