We ran across some items of interest while driving around in Longmont. Turns out there is lots to do here. Since we had been to the Coors Brewery, it was recommended that we visit the Left Hand Brewery. We did and it was very cool. I guess this is considered a 'craft' beer. There was no tour of the brewery but we enjoyed socializing in the tasting room. Not sure why it's called that, but it was a fun place to visit. The bartender was a hoot. They didn't serve food, but they had a food truck come in most afternoons. This one showed up as we were leaving. It was almost new and was all gleaming stainless steel inside. Looked very sanitary. There was this place we saw and for some reason we thought it was a cheese-making school. Turns out they not only sold mucho cheese, but was also a cafe and of course a gift shop. Meanwhile, back at the fairgrounds, Saturday morning brought forth a great Farmers Market. But wait - there's more! There was also a car show. A lot goes on at the fairgrounds, right at our front door. This was all on Saturday. The next day being Sunday we attended the First Baptist Church of Longmont. A very old building in the middle of town, the sanctuary held maybe 150 people. This Sunday they were featuring 'bluegrass gospel music'. Well, kinda... This was all on Saturday.

Next stop - Estes Park. Stay Tuned.
