We Are Coloradans! Coloradites? Longmontians?

We arrived to Longmont, Colorado, on Tuesday, September 10th at 3PM Mountain time.  I have much to tell you about the drive and our first week (first days!) in our new hometown/state! 
 
 
Two long days of driving, bookended with loading and unloading a moving truck, were somewhat exhausting!
 
Days of rains that led to flooding of biblical proportion in Boulder County!  Nothing like it in 500 years!!  Yes 5 HUNDRED years!!!
 
The upside: we were indoors getting unpacked and decorated during the bad weather.
 
We enjoyed much-deserved brews our 2nd nite here.  After unloading in drizzle and returning the truck in the rain, we went directly to Walnut Brewery!  We even did a quick walk of Pearl Street Mall under our umbrellas.
 
We have been applying for jobs and trying to familiarize ourselves with our new neighborhood, city and county (well, from Longmont to Boulder, so far).
 
I have a job interview tomorrow with Spirit Halloween!  HA!!  Just looking for something part-time to get us a little extra money and to indulge my senses in our favorite holiday!
 
Found a wonderful little coffee place in downtown Longmont, where the coffee is pretty good and the free internet even better!
 
In a nutshell, that is where we are right now....only one week in! 
 
I have scribbled cryptic notes along the way, but don't have them with me at the moment. 
 
Observations from the road and a review of a small-town greasy spoon where we had breakfast on deck!
