Been There.. Done That- Sipapu/Taos, NM

Five of us packed into the truck Thursday night with our skis and boards & made 3day weekend ski trip to the land of enchantment

Sipapu/Taos, New Mexico - December 2010

Tyler wasn't to graceful on Ski's, but he did rock the Ski Bike

we Stayed @ the El Monte Sagrado

in a Global suite -The Texas Suite

2 bedroom Villa w/ private courtyard & hot tub! *aka*- Awesome!

Thanks Randy & Matt for the Marriott family discount :)

We met a few interesting people while trying to recover from falling down the mountain :)

The hotel's artsy snake bar is nice- but frowns on bringing your own wine and using their glasses. (FYI:)

The nightlife gods weren't so gracious this trip around Taos

The Concierge shuttled us to a downtown bar (the alley bar) tucked in a back corner of a pueblo shoping center,

where they wanted us to pay $15 & it was closing in 30 min.

So we bounced in the shuttle to the Taos Casino

...where they just closed the tables :(

So we went back to the hotel and enjoyed our hot tub

& sweet tea vodka :)

On the way home we cured everyone's gambling blue balls by stopping

@ The Ohkay Casino in Santa Fe

I kept it frugal @ The Ohkay Casino bar while the team brought back the big bucks
