After breakfast we traveled to Anderson Columbia and met with Joe Anderson II

Good Evening Team!

Today has been an incredibly active day. We left Tallahassee at 7:15 am and traveled to Perry for breakfast. We had an great down home country breakfast at the Downtown Cafe. I met Bummy Williams, the Sheriff of Taylor County, and had a great conversation with him. I also met with the Perry Police Chief, Vern Clark, and with members of the Thomas family, who own the local Chevrolet dealership.

After breakfast we traveled to Anderson Columbia and met with Joe Anderson II. This was our second trip to Anderson Columbia, but our first meeting with Joe. He's a great guy with a wealth of insight and knowledge. After our meeting, we moved on to the Perry Rotary Club. I'm a Rotarian, so it worked out well for me to be able to make up a meeting in Taylor County! I was given the opportunity to address the club for a few minutes. I was given a warm introduction by Dan Simmons of the Buckeye Paper Company and the crowd made me feel very welcome. After lunch we drove to the Taylor Correctional Institution, where we were able to visit with the warden and many of the correctional officers.

Shortly after lunch we received the sad news that Rev. Jerry Falwell passed away today. The Christian Community lost one of our great soldiers today. Please keep Rev. Falwell's family in your thoughts and prayers this evening.

I made a quick stop in Chiefland and then made my way to the Crystal River American Legion. The American Legion was the scene of the first Senate District 3 candidate forum, sponsored by the Citrus County Republican Executive Committee. I felt that the debate was a huge success. We have a strong and defining message, and we are building more and more support throughout District 3.
