This Memorial is at the Civic Center Park. On the North end, you will find this Voorhies Memorial…read moreand on the other end, you will find the Greek Amphitheater and the other Colonnade. Both ends mirror each other with a large Colonnade. This Voorhies Memorial was named for John N.P. Voorhies, the benefactor of this project. His money helped finish off the structure at the north end of the park in around 1919. The Colonnade is made up of Sandstone and Granite. Sculptors Arthur and William Fisher designed this memorial. The Sea Lions in the pool is also a part of this memorial. It was designed by Robert Garrison and installed in 1922. We walked in through the south entrance and gazed into the distance to the southern entrance of the park. It is a pretty spectacular view! We looked around the park and made our way to the northern end. First off, I saw the pond, it was interesting to see cherubs on the backs of the Sea Lions. Then, I had to take a second look at the heads on posts. They do seem out of place, but it brought more interest to the area! These are actually the Chinese Zodiac animals. I didn't know these were here. Why? Because the animal heads are on tour! They were designed by Ai Weiwei. It is called "Circle of Animals". They have been created in Bronze. It was cool to see these animals there! Since this collection is on tour, I don't know how long they will be here or where they'll be headed next. It was a pleasant surprise to see this while exploring the park! If you are nearby and want to see this installation, do it while it is here!

The light show is timed throughout the day and I arrived like 45 minutes early, so I had plenty of time to explore their "downstairs area." Tons of free arcade games. I played Pac-Man and whatever game it is where you shoot aliens. There is also a car racing game. There is an old school basketball game hooked up to an old TV. They have a large projector screen hooked up to a Nintendo switch with Mario and Zelda games. I actually really enjoyed coloring in the many coloring books they had. They have retro, funky furniture, fun decorations, and merch for sale. The light show itself is a fun time! No videography or photography during, but they do a basic show at the end so people can take photos and videos. You can lay on the floor or back in a pew on one of the many fluffy stuffed pillows and watch and meditate. They have great stoner music too (think Pink Floyd). And of course, the chapel itself is beautiful. No partaking in cannabis while in the building. They keep it family friendly (there were toddlers there when I went, but they were well behaved). They have multi-denominational church services a couple times a month where people can use cannabis. There is a lot of nearby street parking, as it's kinda in a residential area, though I took a Lyft. Also a mile or less walk to some of the main food and bar sites on Broadway.

First, it's not quite what you think - nothing is sold and nothing is used there. I wouldn't say it's exactly family friendly for every family but there were little kids there. We started with the meditation/laser show. The room, once the church sanctuary, is painted in the brightest colors imaginable. It's absolute eye candy. You sit (or lay) on church pews that are full of squishy pillows. The lights dim, the meditation starts and the lasers illuminate various parts of the room. Even with the rock music, it really was mellow and relaxing. I don't know if you're permitted to sit through it more than once but I know that I would have liked too. While the laser show and "brightness" may be the main draw, the arcade was the most fun for us. Everything is included, no quarters needed. I played ski-ball until my arm was tired. While my husband played Galaga, I was drawn to the lite-brite. Simple? Yes but I wasn't allowed to have one when I was little and this was an absolute thrill for me. We then went into another room where we played Mario Cart - the game was projected onto an entire wall. There were board games, more arcade games, crayons and markers...everything needed to unleash your inner child - my husband and I spent the entire afternoon doing just that. We're back home now. I'm looking at the clock thinking about what to make for dinner. You know what? Heck with it - I'm going to go color instead...

Lived here almost four years and I really do like this place…read more Longmont is a sleeper community for Boulder and is about 20 minutes out from Boulder using The Diagonal (County Rd 119). Located in town for larger companies are: a branch of GE, Pharmerica (you would never know it) Amgen and Seagate. Boulder/Gunbarrel hold Qualcomm, IBM, Spectra Logic, BI and a branch of Google. The Boulder County Fair Grounds are located in town on Hover St (which runs parallel to Main St.) This is also where the Farmer's market is held on Saturdays from May to August or October. It has been growing in size here evey year and there is plenty of parking. I like this place because for the most part it is clean. Coming from Florida where the roads are generally littered with debris, this place is spotless. The longer you live here the more you notice it, but it is borderline negligible. You probably want to avoid living down by Main Street. Then again, there are plenty of cute, older homes and a few larger historical homes driving down 3rd Ave. It is a mash up. It might get a little dodgy on the East side of Main St. but then it eases up into nicer communities again. Train rail: Runs through the center of town and it gets used - keep that in mind. Lakes and Reservoirs: It usually costs per person. One cost $8 per person, not car. That was a shock coming from Florida. Crime - Applied for a job with the city and I mentioned that someone said there are "gangs" here and the police officers I was interviewing with did confirm this, but I have to say it is almost laughable because you really cannot tell. I have never once seen an obvious signs of "gangs" here. Foliage - I am impressed that the city actually tends to its lane dividers and there are real plants and trees in them. The older part of town has plenty of shade trees, but as you move to the edges, persay, there are less trees due to newer construction. The town continually sends out a newsletter with activities and reminders which I personally like. Every year there is the Mud Hen Run and Rhythm on the River. They have a shredding event every couple of months at the recycling center which is in the town, not on the outskirts. This is where you can take your wrapping paper and trees too. Love the public pools but they can get crowded and loud with lots of kids, but who can pass up the tube slides (two at each venue)?? There is a small airport that people park at and watch the small planes land. This is on Airport Rd where the police like to hide behind the Amgen sign with a speed gun... Plenty of dog parks, just be sure to have your dog's shots up to date and licensed because apparently the city likes to creep around and nail people. Longmont is a "family town," more than other towns I have lived in in Florida. I always feel safe here. I have only lived in one apartment complex since being here and we like it enough that we haven't moved. There are plenty of decent complexes in this town ,and yes a few questionable ones. *Note 2013 - I have since moved to TN and there isn't a day that goes by that I don't truly miss Longmont. "You don't know what you have until it's gone"...did I just quote Cinderella? *Note 2017 (my review was dropped from a five star to three for the following reason) - I am college educated, handle my bills well, live below my means and would love to return to Longmont. Sadly, we are unable to do so due to the outrageous increase in rent. The apartment we used to live in (and loved) charged us slightly over $1064 in 2013. This same two bedroom, two bath second floor unit is now available from $1,860 - $2880 a month - not including pet fees. I am heartbroken. I miss the mountains and amazing weather - do you know what it is like to grow up without seasons? It's weird. Our plan is to finally settle on a state with our new family and I would love to contribute to my community and become an invested member of the town, alas this type of pricing in Longmont is ridiculous. The rates are so extreme that individuals and companies who are ramping up their rental rates in order to get their fair share of the boom are pushing out well meaning, intelligent, and productive individuals. The city will end up with households consisting of more than one family, numerous generations, or clusters of young adults co-habitating, just so these people can afford to live within city limits. It is sad when you want to return and all you are hoping for is the housing bubble to burst. The large corporation I worked for prior to leaving Colorado has since let go of over 130 people and the ability to return to this company is highly unlikely. I cannot emphasize how much my husband and I want to return to raise our child here. Dear Longmont: I am your target market and I cannot afford to contribute to bolstering a community I really loved. If I knew I could safely afford to live here we would return in a heartbeat.

Like, did you know that the song "America the Beautiful" was a poem written by English professor Katharine Lee Bates after climbing Pikes Peak? Did you know Colorado was really active in the women's suffrage movement? There's plenty more to say about this fair state and the house that leads it, but I'll let ya'll learn for yourselves.

The building itself is huge, thoughtfully organized, and full of natural light, which makes it a great place to spend a few hours exploring. There are so many different ways to enjoy the space. You can grab a book and settle into one of the cozy reading areas, reserve a study room, or stop by the coffee shop. There's also a fantastic kid-friendly area and even fish tanks that add to the calm, relaxing atmosphere. One of my favorite parts is the location right along Boulder Creek. You can step outside and walk the path, enjoy the scenery, and then come back inside to read or work. It feels like the perfect mix of nature, community, and learning. The library also hosts events throughout the year, so there's always something going on. Whether you're visiting Boulder or you live nearby, it's absolutely worth a stop. Great vibes all around.
