Booze, Food, and Small Towns.

I have again updated the list. This past weekend I finished two of my NM Bucket List items. The first was to have lunch on the patio of Coyote Cafe and have a Lava Lamp. I'd never been to the Coyote Cafe, and had no clue what a Lava Lamp was, now I'd recommend both to anyone!! I rode the train up to Santa Fe and was picked up by my mom. After a quick dentist appointment we headed downtown for our lunch!

The Lava Lamp (Left) is a Lager with a frozen Margarita mixed in. Perfect for a hot day! The pic on the right is their Guacamole!

I had their Fish Tacos. Delicious.

The next item I finished was to visit Taos and eat at the Guadalajara Grill. Both of my parents joined me for this one, and we made it into a bigger trip than just Taos. We started with a scenic drive to Taos which included a stop in Chimayo. After Taos we stopped at 2 wineries for tastings, was a really fun day!

Two shots from our stop in Chimayo.

Down town Taos is pretty similar to Santa Fe. We were that some sort of event was going on that day other wise there really wouldn't have been much to do there.

An classic car "parade" of sorts took place as we were leaving. The pic on the right was clearly taken for my dad.

The Guadalajara Grill was a pretty great place for lunch! If you have dietary restrictions though you need to be very precise on what you order.

Ended our trip with visits to Vivac and Black Mesa.

I have one more month. I'm starting to realize I may not complete the list, but I'm going to do what I can! Either way its going to be a great month!
