I’ve been staying at the Harbord Motel run by Mrs. Ileta Bourland. Four little brick tourist cabins…the best deal in town, just $24 a night. It’s what you call “off season” here in Coleman. The cashiers at the Walmart said it was 107 degrees. Sure, you could wait to come to Coleman..the town will fill up with deer hunters in a few months, when the weather cools down a bit…but then you would miss the peaches on Mrs. Bourland’s tree. Mrs. Bourland has been awful nice to me. She’s been bringing me ice, and peaches, and turning on my air conditioning before I come home from the boot shop. This weekend she shared some of her homemade peach cobbler…yummmmmmm.
