Chapter 53M aria and I arrived in Los Angeles on Monday and checked into the Beverly Hilton. The first few days, we toured the usual tourist sites. Tonight was the first of the Grammy Parties we were invited to. We decided to lay around the pool most of the day. Later in the afternoon, Maria had an appointment at the spa. While she was at the spa, I decided I would get a haircut. I went to make an appointment with the hotel barber. The barbershop was booked solid. Having several hours to kill, I decided to go downtown to find a barbershop. Driving down Sunset Blvd. I stopped and parked a few doors down from a neighborhood barbershop that looked like it could use some business. I got out and walked in.
“Good afternoon, is it possible to get a trim?”
“Of course, I accept walk-ins.”
