Longmont Golden Ponds

After a morning of chores and two days of being indoors, due to rain, we were ready to head out and enjoy the beautiful day together.

We packed a picnic lunch and ate together at the ponds. Yummy turkey sandwiches with avacado spread and cheese. Plus, cheese sticks, yogurts, goldfish, and juice boxes.

There was a cool waterfall going on beause of all the water that was built up from the rain and melting snow in the mountains.
This is a statue of V.V. Golden. Quote "A day fishing is a day added to life."

Land was donated to the City of Longmont by the V.V. Golden Foundation. Vernon Golden, who had mined gravel on this site, donated the land to Longmont citizens as a place to fish, walk and enjoy nature. THANKS VERN!
