Longmont travel guide

A sunrise view of Longs Peak at golden ponds in Longmont Colorado, Boulder County

This is Saint Vrain state park in Colorado, seeing the mountains shining bright always brings a smile

An American white pelican, one of the biggest birds you can observe in North America with its nine-foot wingspan, comes home to roost at 8:45 pm on the longest day of the year at St. Vrain State Park in Longmont, Colorado. Pelicans breed every summer on this inland prairie reservoir with a backdrop of the Rocky Mountains. A life of traveling and working via motorcoach full-time allows us to discover such wonders.
