When it comes to art, Loveland seems to have that locked in. From all the sculptures in town, to all the great murals that you'll find; including this new one in Downtown.

A local business that has been operating for over 100 years, recently decided that their outer wall needed "something." How about a tree that has a swing- 3D style?

At the corner of 5th Street and Railroad in Downtown Loveland, sits Chambers Plumbing, Heating & Air. In 2021, they celebrated 100 years of being in business. If you live in Loveland, you've definitely heard the name, "Chambers."

There aren't many businesses that make it to 50 years, let alone 100, so why not do something "big" to acknowledge it? A big mural of a tree, for example. Better still, how about adding a swing to that tree, with a bench for people to sit on?

That's what artist Cindy Kittinger, Art2ya, has gone and done for that east side wall. Art2ya has been doing art for the Loveland area for many years; you have may have see her work inside the new Betta Gumbo at The Foundry. She's often painted the windows on the front of businesses, like Chambers, as well. Now, it's a big wonderful mural of a tree with a swing.

How neat is that? An actual bench for a swing attached to the wall, that you can sit on and pretend that you are having a swing, letting the day just fly by without a care.

It's a great addition to Downtown. Stop and have a "swing," when you get the chance.

After opening in 2008, Las Palmeras Mexican Restaurant has become one of the area's very best locally-owned places to get delicious, and authentic Mexican food. We found this place by accident years ago while driving hungry down Main Street in Longmont and have been regulars ever since.

The owner, the staff, the food, and the drinks are all top notch and that's what makes this one of Colorado's top choices for delicious Mexican food. It's also a perfect place to watch sports!
