  • BHM Final Update 11-2019A
    Beyond Heart Mountain: An offbeat Western reinventing Superman’s ‘American Way’ By Alan O’Hashi [email protected] 303-910-5782 Draft December 1, 2019 November 12, 2019 October 23, 2019 September 5, 2019 Where were you? (Ground Zero pix, anti-Japanese button) It was an unusually hot day in September. I must have been in a hurry because I didn’t bother to turn on the Today Show or the Morning Edition on Colorado Public Radio while getting ready for my commute to work in Denver. This particular morning I took the Regional Transportation District (RTD) route 205 bus from the stop near my Boulder condo to the RTD Walnut Street station in downtown Boulder. My bus stop was next to the convenience store where I stopped most days for a cup of coffee. “Looks like it’s going to be a good one out there,” I don’t think the dark-skinned clerk understood a word I said about the great weather predicted for the day. He grinned and handed over my change. I clunked a couple cents into the plastic leave-a-penny take-a-penny tray on the counter and cut through the gas pumps to the bus stand. Living near the corner of Valmont Road and 28th Street was convenient - walking distance to the liquor store, and the Asian market. The condo complex was a converted 1970s era apartment building. Across Goose Creek was a vintage plumbing store called Rayback that stocked ancient brass fittings for small maintenance jobs. From the downtown Boulder bus station, few passengers waited to catch the B Express bus to Denver.
