Loveland’s Rick Padden on the move

Loveland businessman journalist and playwright Rick Padden is starting a new adventure.  Rick and his wife own Kitchen Alley downtown Loveland.

Rick send me an email telling me that he is now involved with Blue Tree Real Estate Ltd.  He is billing himself as The Bone Hunter “I’ll find you a home with good bones.”

Speaking of Padden–His play The Great Loveland Potato Hoax is set to open this weekend at the Rialto Theater Center.  I have seen the reading of it and it is good.  A fun but true story from Loveland’s past.

Since my wife and I volunteer at the Rialto, I will be there this Friday night.  Stop by and say hello.  Not sure if I will be doing concesions, tickets or ushering.

Loveland Merchant Voyage to get help

Loveland business Merchant Voyage has been struggling.  I blogged about the plight of Merchant Voyage on April 26.   

Now there may be some good new.  A recent email from Renee Blanchard says that the Loveland Cash Mob will decend on Merchant Voyage (246 E. Fourth Street) at 2 p.m. on May 12.

Try to find time to stop by and support a locally owned business in downtown (DoLo) Loveland.

Click on this line to find out about the Loveland Cash Mob.  They have a Loveland Cash Mob Facebook page too.

Loveland business on the move

I don’t usually post things without verifying them.  This one is something I heard from two sources but have not talked to the actual owner.  They were not in yesterday afternoon, and are out today.  

One of my faithful “beeps” called this exciting news.  The other person is very knowledgeable about Loveland, and they said the same thing.

Last week I mentioned that something was temporarily being displaced where the Mandolin Cafe was in downtown (Dolo) Loveland.  Well, it seems the space will be occupied again.

From what my detective work tells me, the Coffee Tree (currently located at Anthology Book Company) is going to move into the Mandolin’s space.  This would give them a much bigger work area.

I do not know what will happen with the area they now have at Anthology.

If YOU know anything, let me know.

Loveland non-news

Loveland likes to know what is going on in the business world.  BobsHeartBeats.com tries to keep on top of this, with the help of many of my loyal readers. (“beeps”) 

I thought I had a news story about a new business on Fourth Street in Loveland, but it is not exactly that.  As I was walking by the old Mandolin Cafe, I noticed a sign for BJ Works and some nice furniture in the window.  Eureka!  A new business?

Not so fast!  After doing some email and phone investigation, I found that BJ Works LLC(Brian Jarvis) has just using the space on a week-to-week basis, thanks to the owner, Barry Floyd.

At least it is better than an empty building, but it would be nice to have a new thriving business in that spot.

What woudl YOU like to see go in this spot vacated by Mandolin Cafe?
