Boulder is beautiful. I live in Longmont. Much more conservative, as you know. I really love going down to Pearl Street Mall in the summer. My kids love to play in the fountain and we have lunch with their Daddy on Friday's. Sometimes you see creepy people, but for the most part, it's patroled pretty well.
My niece and her husband live in Longmont---Boulder got too expensive for them---
I love the Pearl Street Mall--of course when I was growing up it wasn't there ---it was put in after I moved to Texas, but since I have a lot of family still there, we visit all of the time....
I lived on Baseline Rd....
