27. I wonder what hotel he is staying at.....

Wed Oct 3, 2012, 05:59 PM

Oct 2012

I live in Denver and trying to think of where there are hotels in close proximity to train tracks and I'm coming up blank at the moment. Maybe there's something downtown but I would think those hotels have good windows and I've never noticed the trains when I've been there.

Interesting excuse.....
