Flowers and messages, some spiritual and some political, at the makeshift memorial outside King Soopers on Boulder’s Table Mesa Drive, a week after a gunman opened fire in the store March 22, 2021, killing 10 people.

CPR investigative reporter Ben Markus answers questions about gun laws in Colorado. Then, Rep. Iman Jodeh on her priorities and on being the state's first Muslim lawmaker. Plus, preserving the memorial in Boulder and a special poem. Also, voting on marijuana in Grand Junction. And the other time masks and social distancing were part of life in Colorado.
