Take Your Pet Down the IBM Connector Trail in Gunbarrel
The Colorado scenery in the wintertime is something you just have to see to believe. The majestic Rockies and the clear blue skies make for memorable images you will never forget. Fortunately, there is a great trail nearby where you can stroll along and take it all in.
The Lobo Trail is just a short distance from our pet-friendly apartments near Gunbarrel. That means you don’t have to go far in order to enjoy it. When completed, the trail will snake along 12 miles of the most beautiful scenery this side of the Alps. Best of all, you and your pet can enjoy the view together as you march along.
You can also take the IBM Connector Trail, which connects Longmont to Boulder (and more specifically, Gunbarrel to Boulder parks and trails). It’s a long trip, but it is well worth making every now and then. The project is currently underway and area denizens are eagerly awaiting it’s completion. When finished, it will connect Cottontail Trail and the Boulder Reservoir Trail to create one of the longest trails in North America.

Eat Up! Food Truck Parties at Gunbarrel Commons Park
That delicious smell you can taste wafting through the air is coming from the many food trucks near our apartment in Boulder that are busy cooking up some of the finest sandwiches, pizzas and BBQ in the state. So, grab your keys, pull out your GPS, and make your way towards them because you’re definitely going to want to sample what they’re cooking up.
Now, the city doesn’t allow the trucks to park in the city, that’s why the Food Truck Parties meet over at Gunbarrel Commons Park…which is in the county. There, the Comida truck cooks up the tacos and burritos; the Crock Spot simmers old school soups and stews and the Heirloom Truck serves up some of the freshest cheese, tempura and vegetables in the entire area.
And, every once in a while, the Top of the Hill Grill fires up their pit and chars up some of the most delicious baby back ribs, pulled pork and beef brisket this state has seen since Daddy Bruce shut down.
Do you have a favorite food truck that you track through the area? Be sure to get on Facebook and share your favorites with the other Habitat residents who might want to discover what you already know.
