Interesting Stay in Albuquerque Today

Driving to Texas, I am overnighting in Albuquerque tonight at the Fairfield Inn. I parked and proceeded into the hotel to check in. The lobby was quite a sight as it appears that the NRA National Police Shooting Champtionship is in town. It looked like 5.11 was having a convention at my hotel. Anyways, despite all the obvious stares, not a comment was made.

Later, I was in the parking lot and checking my vehicle when two hotel security guards came by to see if I needed any assistance. Not a word was said about my sidearm and after sharing my surprise regarding the LEO presence, they just laughed and said everything is cool. Just one observation: With all the cops staying at the hotel, why the need for security guards? Oh, wait. I know... no obligation to protect!

Anyways, I'm off again in the morning. I hope they don't sell alcohol at Denny's.

Carry on!
