Taos Travel Forum

We are all traveling to New Mexico for Dad's 80th and want to celebrate with dinner out while staying near Taos. There will be 11 of us. I would appreciate any ideas. Thanks

On a visit to taos in 12/06 we visited a store that sold hats in teh back. the shopkeeper had an antique hat sizer so measure your head and was extremely knowledgeable about hat styles. We would like to make a special trip there to buy a hat but want to make sure that he's still there and that he's open this Wedmsday morning (our ONLY chance to get there). I can't find Hats in the the yeelow pages. Anyone know who I'm talking about? The front of the store sells something else but I can't remember what! Any leads? ASAP Thanks

I have been to Taos many, many times in the past. I love it.

It was my Mecca...... I am now far away! I want to revisit it in March, after the 11th. When is the best time if I want to avoid the locals and their spring break/holiday? Is this even an issue that should affect my timing? I know that Texans flood into Taos when school is out.
Is there a best time to come in March or a period to avoid?

Thanks,
A Texan in Connecticut.....

I fear that I already know the answer to this question, but is there any cool places to grab a drink in Taos after skiing? Any bands? Beer with atmosphere?
THANKS!
