Taos. Beautiful town high up in the mountains in NM, the touristy section 
looked like it fell out of 1880. Great skiing.

Many years back, I flew from the San Francisco bay area to Las Vegas, 
spending 3 days on the strip. Ate steak frites at a "french" brasserie with 
an incredible wine list right on the strip. Rented a full-sized land barge 
and drove through Nevada and Arizona on route 666 to the Grand Canyon, spent 
some time on the south rim, toured an airport museum in the middle of 
nowhere, then drove through New Mexico, Albuquerque for the balloon 
festival, through indian territories, visited a couple of old indian 
villages, then up to Taos for a night. Narrowly missed going to Los Alamos 
and Roswell before committing a high-speed non-stop burn back to Vegas for 
the flight home, the rental guys happy to take posession of a cooler full of 
the remaining beers and sodas we'd had left.
