This am, in the parking lot at the Banff Hotel, a guy asked me if I had a hammer, because the key to his car didn’t work and he wanted to break a window to get in. He was pretty geeked up for 8 am. I’m a big fan of LAPD detective Harry Bosch, so I noted, in case I was interviewed later, that he was of Indian or middle eastern descent, 5’ 10”, 180-185 lbs, bald, medium brown complexion, eyes spaced a bit wider than normal, black running suit (not Adidas), left-handed. I did not offer the hammer I have, instead offering less drastic options. His response : “I got thrown out of a bar last night and just got out of jail. Do you have a hammer?”. I suggested he ask the hotel for help and went back to our van. He followed me, then picked up a big rock and said, “This’ll do it”. As I walked away I could hear him pounding the rock on his window. I decided it was better to grab Dawn and have breakfast.
Me, the Harry Bosch of Banff

Hahaha Smarter than Harry ! Beautiful place though. Better view than off Harry’s deck.
Hysterical! Also, that hotel is the most beautiful I have ever seen in the whole world. The view outside in the back is breathtaking!
