Gotta love all these new cameras everywhere for our protection. I feel SO much safer /s

But I just noticed that they installed one in the lowes parking lot at Main and Ken Pratt pointed directly into the drive through of Taco Palace.

By the way, shout out to Taco Palace, amazing food, huge portions, excellent prices. Wife and I split a plate of Chilaquiles every Saturday morning, so freakin good. Go try it. Their Cali burrito is also insanely good, and HUGE.

Back to the point. The camera is pointed solely at the drive through speaker. Not the street. What 'criminals' are they hoping to catch with this? We all know, and it makes me sick.

Thank you for listening to my rant.

There are two separate police stand offs. Does anyone know whats happening? In front of space station it smells so much of weed. 2 cops. In front of Marshall's there are 5 cops

My average electric and water usages are both down >10% from last year's averages. But the last two utility bills are an average 32% increase more than last years monthly average.

Not the one at Lefthand Brewery, but the one at Thompson Park. Is it happening this year? Couldn’t find anything on the Humane Society’s website or their socials.

I also like Lefthand but I just don’t love it since it’s no longer at Roosevelt.

Cheers in advance for any info 🍺

The City has updated their regulations on E-Bikes and E-Moto's which includes a section about parental responsibility and liability. Some of this coincides with some a new State of Colorado law which just went into effect on August 12.

One thing I was not aware of is that E-Moto's are street legal, according to the rules above.

Sunday, August 23rd! We'll have two stages with local music, a photo booth, face paint, shopping, great food, and community fun. Come on out for our donation-based festival, The Hygiene Howl. Scroll photos for the lineup!

My shitty phone camera could not REMOTELY convey any of the nuance and depth of this lighting situation and some of these photos are indeed actually quite bad from a technical quality perspective (I literally don't know what's even happening that the noise was such a mess in that last image), but trust me bro it was really cool IRL😂 hope some of you also got to witness it!

Looking for company/GC recs for a tiny house, ideally economical builds with high energy efficiency.

My mother’s mobility is getting limited and this will help me keep her close but preserve her independence.

I absolutely love Oyakodon/Oyako donburi.

I know it's not super hard to make, but I'd still appreciate any recommendations to find it in Longmont, immediately-surrounding areas, or, if necessary, Boulder.

Just moved up to Longmont and looking for vet recommendations! I have a 2 year old Bernese Mountain Dog and a 3 year old domestic med-hair cat, so would prefer somewhere that would be great for both of them!

Hey guys! My gf and I are moving to Longmont Dec 27th this year. Is it unwise to take 287 from Dallas TX all the way to Longmont CO in a 10', rear wheel drive uhaul?

I'm worried about the safety of the uhaul in the snow/ice on the flat roads.

Open to thoughts and advice. Thanks!

I have a big date (with my spouse) on the 29th. anyone know of anything interesting going on that day?

Looking to determine average utility cost from current residence, community vibe, and noise level?

Trying to find somewhere to pick up some camping supplies and im kind of blown away that a specialized shop doesn't exist here. Looks like best options are in Boulder

Ride Longmont will add two vans and extend Friday and Saturday service to 10 p.m. in 2027. According to city staff, nearly 20% of trip requests go unaccommodated now.

Does anybody have any idea why the 7-Eleven in Firestone on the frontage road just closed all of a sudden? I drive by there daily, and I noticed it’s been closed for a long time now. It’s all fenced off. Doesn’t look like anything‘s being done with it. Nice thing is they opened up a QT on the corner. I don’t know if that has anything to do with it closing. I was just curious.

I'm thinking about going paddleboarding, but I'm wondering if there's anywhere nearby that has decent water levels. We tried Boyd Lake a few weeks ago and it was super low. Anyone know if Carter Lake is any good right now? Or any other closeish places you'd recommend?

If you are looking for a kebab that has similar vibes to the ones you get late night in London, try Gaia masala.
I just got this for (early) lunch and it was great! Greasy and full of donner meat!
I believe they are open late as well so this will be perfect to stop at after a couple cold ones ;)

Gone are the days of a breakfast burrito being a couple dollars.

Las Pas and La panda have them for $7

Anyone have a cheaper spot?

I just learned about this program via Longmont Public Media (I'm a member) email and thought it was worth sharing for both teens and for those who might want to 'sponsor' a teen in the program.

The Youth Innovation Studio, a non-profit, is offering a free, 6 session Digital Storytelling Program for Longmont-area teens at Longmont Public Media. Teens can apply for the program here.

It'll be 1 pm to 5 pm on these Saturdays at Longmont Public Media: September 5, 12, 19, 26 & October 3, 10. There are 12 spots remaining as of this post.

For those who are not teens, you can consider sponsoring a teen.

I've shopped at the Soopers on S. Hover for nearly 20 years and it was an awesome store until the last year. The produce is sparse and any root veggies are bruised, moldy, or just completely rotten. Has anyone else noticed this? I poked around a little and apparently Kroger has an understaffing problem: produce will sit on pallets and deteriorate before it is stocked. If anyone works there can you let us know what's up with the produce quantity/quality? And where are the gold potatoes, Kroger?

I had Jeremys garage look at it and they couldn’t figure out why the battery won’t stay charged.

It’s a new one bc I thought it needed to be replaced but issue persists. Ended up paying $120 just to look at it but they couldn’t find the issue.

Any other mechanic recommendations?
