Even a quick look at Goodtimes' ramshackle place outside the tiny town of Norwood, where he's lived for the last 16 years, will tell you that he's not a typical western Colorado county commissioner. Not by a long shot. The yard is hung with handpainted prayer flags, and a collection of skulls, rocks, road signs, and license plates decorates the property. A big orange cat reclines in the yard, and a beat-up red pickup truck painted with white polka dots sits in the driveway, plastered with bumper stickers from long-ago elections. The truck enjoys fifteen minutes of fame in the Telluride mushroom festival parade each year, when the festival's king and queen ride in the back and wave to their subjects.
