If you want to get to Santa Fe, the best way is the cheap flight to Albuquerque (try spelling that without google) then a rental car and 50 min drive

Santa Fe is VERY tourist-centric. Food is expensive, commerce seems entirely devoted to shopping. There is, however, a very pleasant and large art influence that is well worth experiencing.

a nice river. Santa Fe is filled with artists. Not shown in this picture is a guy sitting on the edge of the gully drawing the landscape; barefoot of course.

I love pawn shops. This one had a great owner -- learned a lot about the pawn owner personality... How much you want for that, or, just what you can get? I dont have that much cash in the store.
