Western Road Trip Destination: Southern New Mexico and El Paso, Texas Book: A Taco Testimony: Meditations on Family Food and Culture (2006) by Denise Chávez Here at A Traveler’s Library, we seem to be talking a lot about books that tell lives and culture through food. Recently I reviewed the beautiful White Truffles in Winter [...]This content is a post from: A Traveler's Library To comment on this post or search for related information, click on the link to A Traveler's Library.

Gallup Flea Market: Back Again
Blog: Roving Gastronome - 6 September 2011
On my birthday, I went to Gallup, New Mexico. Not a typical place for celebration, I realize, but I’m kind of fond of how this town has developed in the last decade. There are murals everywhere, you can get handmade moccasins, the county courthouse is cool Pueblo Deco, and there are demonstration dances on the [...]

Travel Photo Thursday: Hatch NM
Blog: A Traveler's Library - 1 September 2011
Just have to share this Uncle Sam from the small town of Hatch, New Mexico. The town is best known as the green chile capital of the world. And what’s that in Uncle Sam’s hand?? This photo is posted as part of Travel Photo Thursday, started by Budget Travel Sandbox where you can see a gorgeous [...]This content is a post from: A Traveler's Library To comment on this post or search for related information, click on the link to A Traveler's Library.

When Train Travel Was “It”
Blog: A Traveler's Library - 25 February 2011
This is a fun film to go with our review of Historical Atlas of the North American Railroad. The film is obviously aimed at children, but still, it reminds us of how rail travel has changed. The station at the beginning is Washington D. C.'s Union Station, and the ending of the film (after the [...]This content is a post from: A Traveler's Library To comment on this post or search for related information, click on the link to A Traveler's Library.

Santa Fe Winter Light
Blog: Desperately Seeking Root Beer - 7 April 2010
It was cold and stormy here in the Bay Area this past weekend, so I did what I could do to counteract the lingering winter weather at least on a small scale: cook posole. Posole, whether you spell it with an 's' or a 'z', or even if you call it hominy stew, is a warming hearty meal, and for me the ultimate comfort food in cold weather.

New Mexico #4: All Aboard the Rail Runner
Blog: Roving Gastronome - 26 March 2010
The wild West of yore is all about trains and cows and gunslingers and dudes in hats. Today, cattle still roam the range in New Mexico, and folks wear pistols on their hips and hats indoors. But the trains have, for the most part, gone. Sure, there’s the venerable Super Chief, Amtrak’s service that plods [...]

New Mexico Trip #3: It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Texas
Blog: Roving Gastronome - 25 March 2010
I admit, I was instilled with some serious anti-Texan prejudices as a child. The flatlanders came to New Mexico to ski (“If God had meant for Texans to ski,” went one typical grumble, “He would’ve given them their own mountains”). They set up resort enclaves in Ruidoso and Red River, and decorated them with chainsaw-carved [...]

New Mexico Trip #2: Know Your Meat
Blog: Roving Gastronome - 24 March 2010
Southern New Mexico is a little alien to me because they do weird things with their chile down there, and they engage in businesses that you don’t see that much of up north, such as oil drilling, UFO spotting and cattle ranching. I was driving around Roswell, headquarters of “alien” in southern NM, when I [...]

New Mexico Trip #1: Setting the Scene
Blog: Roving Gastronome - 23 March 2010
Fun New Mexico fact: It snows here! Many people mistakenly think New Mexico is warm like, say, Arizona or Texas. This leads to many panicked purchases of coats and boots upon arrival in Albuquerque. The sun does shine nearly every day, but hell yeah, man–it snows here! Which was precisely my fear when I first [...]

Video Edition: White Sands National Monument
Blog: Tales from Technomadia - 4 June 2009
On our way into Carlsbad Caverns, we opted to route through White Sands National Monument in southeast New Mexico, expecting it to be a quick stop. We thought at first.. how interesting can sand dunes be? Afterall, I lived on the coast of Florida for 13 years – I’ve seen my share of [...]

Video Edition: Three Rivers Petroglyph Site
Blog: Tales from Technomadia - 31 May 2009
Heading south through New Mexico on our way to White Sands National Monument, we made a slight detour to check out the Three Rivers Petroglyph Site. It made for a much appreciated hiking break, viewing of cool petroglyphs and great scenery. There is also camping available at the site – including two pull through RV [...]
