I have always wondered how this set of handcuffs ended up on the railing in the back of Barbed Wire Books in Longmont, Colorado. #LongmontColorado #Mystery

Well played, weather. You fooled me again!

Now you too can try the quik trip challenge

Any reaction from tesla?

🙃 We'll see

One question: Is it 3 Denver-Fort Collins trains plus a select number of RTD Denver-Longmont trains? Or 3 total making all stops?

Huh. Not sure how to process this one.

Only comment (RUMOR ALERT!) I was having a drink killing time at Longmont Social yesterday ... and overheard the bartender tell someone that Johnson’s Corner is under new management and closing temporarily for a reset. I guess Longmont Social is under new management as well. ...

The proposal aims to curb the size of homes in unincorporated Boulder County. It is likely to face opposition from the home construction industry.

We'll mention this place on the next podcast, but here's some info on a new dumpling place coming to Longmont.

Looks like we have weather next week. The exact type is... very much TBD?

This is WILD

New spot for urgent care for your pets. May you never need it. 🙏

I did not know trees could get ratioed (maple or otherwise).

Initial reactions to Duet's Bistro is positive. Although, the sample size is remarkably small.

I am currently fooled, and I will be fooled as often as I like, thank you very much.

This event was SO cool. Really too bad the ice wall had issues. :(

When I was riding I was more of a 70s Honda guy, but I really do enjoy a clean vintage bike. Particularly when it's ridden.

So where DO you go to get a fishbowl of marg?

The ice climbing and winterfest at the climbing collective this weekend was awesome. Too bad the ice for the speed climbing finals disintegrated with the near 70 degree temps. Extra cool to have a stream on youtube and see local businesses!

The ice climbing world cup speed finals will be streamed from the longmont climbing collective

Starts mid march

This is like that Archer "do you want ants?" meme... except the ants are like unsustainable sprawl or water usage. Or just pick any number of other things.

Longmont has a cat cafe?!?! elevatedcommunitiescatcafe.org

Wait, more? These weather guys need to stop making all this snow. Alternate take: we always need the moisture.

NEW: Democratic State Senator Sonya Jaquez Lewis of Longmont resigned rather than face an ethics hearing today. She'd been under investigation for allegedly mistreating staff and it was discovered that a letter of support from a former staffer was fabricated. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsCC...
