We had a great day with a Colmesneil Elementary Class. We talked about about all kind of things Colmesneil. The founding and how it got its name. The industry that drove our town. Hotels and businesses in the area. Population in 1889 was 2200 and larger than Beaumont at one time. They were extremely well behaved and asked inquisitive great questions. So refreshing to have a school district and teachers that invest in our community.
