Sunday Someday: Taos, New Mexico

Photo by Taos Ski Valley

Today’s Sunday Someday is Taos, New Mexico.

The Sunday Someday weekly series features photos of my bucket list destinations.

Winter is approaching and I’ve got skiing on the brain.

Yeah, I know the photo features a snowboarder not a skier and I won’t get into the whole skiers vs snowboarders debate.  The mountains are big enough for everyone.

We’ve skied at a lot of places but have yet to make it to Taos.  Maybe this will be the year.

If you’re not into skiing or snowboarding, that’s okay, because Taos is a year-round destination with lots of other activities to keep you busy.

Taos is about a 2 1/2 hour drive from Albuquerque.

Have you been to Taos?  When did you go and what would you recommend doing?
