I love living in SF it’s so beautiful lived here all my 42 years … downtown is the best go to tomasitas to eat mmm you won’t regret it.
Love Tomasitas was delicious.
Agree 100 percent, I always try to visit Tomasitas wether I’m in Santa Fe or Albuquerque.
Heading there in three weeks, will have to try Tomasites
@@playingoutsideafter50 enjoy it there good
Welcome to the Land of Enchantment! So cool you guys are showing the beauty of our home state.
Thank you Michael! It's a beautiful state! We have 2 more episodes coming up from New Mexico, but a return trip is definitely needed. Still so much to see & do!
I grew up in New Mexico but have since moved to Washington state and then Pennsylvania. I've not found any food comparable to what I had growing up in New Mexico. So much love, expertise, history and knowledge goes into each dish. Anytime I go back, I have as much chile as possible and I even have it ordered and shipped to me a few times a year. Thanks for such a cool video and reminders of my childhood.
I moved to New Mexico 16 months ago. I love it! New Mexican food is my favorite in the world. Santa Fe has always been my favorite small town. So beautiful. It's a beautiful state with friendly people.
Me too. Left about 20 years ago, but make it back once in a while and never miss a visit to Blake's Lotaburger. There are also plenty of restaurants for a classic enchilada plate.
I grew up and worked there for the first 33 years of my life. Thanks for going there!
You really made me see how much more I need to get out and see what's right around as a Santa Fe resident! We have a tradition at my work that we try a different place every week to do happy hour and there are so many great options for dining!
Oh yay! We love hearing that, and what a fun thing to do with coworkers. That's a great way to try new places. You're right, there are so many amazing places to eat there! So glad you found us!

Just as an advisory to anyone who wants to visit Santa Fe. The area in and around Santa Fe ranges between 6500 and 8000 feet in elevation the air is much thiner than at sea level so just pace yourself while climbing and hiking
I lived in Santa Fe while attending college and a couple of years after graduating . A great city.
Thank you for doing Santa fe justice! So many people just focus on the typical tourist destinations that they really don't highlight the real city!
There’s so much they didn’t capture and did highlight the typical tourist attractions. Theres trails that people casually walk by daily that have stones seats by the people for gathering. There’s smaller restaurants that have been around way longer. Where are the respects paid to the Mexican cultures? There’s an amazing story behind Meowulf and GRR Martin
Welcome to our beautiful state! 😊 I happen to be one of the thousands of employees at Los Alamos National Laboratory! Northern New Mexico is truly a beautiful place to live and work! Loved watching this video! It reminded me that I need to plan a trip to Bandelier with my kids now as the last time I was there was with my parents when I was young. Thank you for sharing and enjoy your stay in New Mexico! 💕
Hi Destiny! Oh how cool! We had no idea the lab employed so many people to this day. It was fascinating to learn about! The kids will LOVE Bandelier! It's the perfect park for little ones because I can just imagine how cool it would be as a kid to be able to climb into those little caves. Thank you so much for commenting, we're so glad you enjoyed our video! -Katelyn
Hi, fellow New Mexican here! what is that restaurant called that they served the best burger in NM?
Eileen it's called "Sirphey in the Canyon" inside Bandelier!
Destiny I am like you, employed by LANL, there are almost 12,000 employees to be exact 🙂. Santa Fe is such a gorgeous, unique city. Downtown and the Railyard district are my two favorite areas. I don’t know if you got to attend the farmers market while you were here, I haven’t finished the video. It warms my heart that others can see the beauty and culture that we do. I love it here. I am not from Santa Fe originally, I am from the southern part of NM, but I have every intention of staying here the rest of my days! Thank you for visiting and showing the good this city and state has to offer 🙂❤️

Ojo spa looks amazing 😍 cant wait to go there
Beautiful! Land of Enchantment. The land of my mother and father ❤️
Thanks, Nina! Quite the place to be from and to call home. 👍 -Howard
Thank you for so beautifully covering our state capitol.❤💛🌶
Albuquerque local, NM native and thank you for doing our state justice and capturing it’s beauty. Loved your editing style and video, bravo!
This is exactly the video I wanted to see! Santa Fe and Taos is where I want to spend some time at.
I grew up in santa fe so I wasn’t expecting to learn so much, great vid
My spouse and I spent four days in the Santa Fe area. Santa Fe is a very beautiful city compared to the typical ugly American city. Bandalier National Monument is a surprisingly enchanting set of pueblo ruins. I really liked the visitor center that was built by the CCC in the 1930s. With the release of the Oppenheimer movie, Los Alamos is a must see.
Thank you for showing a kinder side of New Mexico.
I got a speeding ticket driving my way through the state in 1978. The trooper pulled me over, I admitted I was speeding. He wouldn't just give me a ticket....nooo. nooooooo. We had to drive to the next town and I had to put cash in a envelope in a mailbox or he said I could spend the night in the towns "accommodations" until the judge got there. I swore the Land of Enchantment would never be on anymore of my travel destinations. 😂😂😂😂😂
Love that story! 😂
Ouch! Out of State license plates = revenue in every State. That would definitely have put a damper on any future plans to travel there.
Oh my goodness, what an ordeal! I can understand why you'd have a sour taste in your mouth after that. Haha
Amazing video! We loved it. Really solidified the need for a trip to Santa Fe for us. Only 17 hrs from Tahoe! :)
Fun fact the staircase has 33 steps!
Exellent video 🎃 Thank you 🙏
18:57 most scenic commute ever. I drove this road many times. Hwy 4 is probably easier on your vehicle, but if you go Hwy 502, it goes right up the side of the mesa.
Hey I live in Los Alamos. Glad you liked it.
Thank you. I love Santa Fe. Sending love, light, peace, joy and blessings to everyone.
Ha ha warmer weather she said. We are higher altitude than Denver… and it get really cold here.
Oh trust me, it was way warmer than the -29 wind chills we came from 😉
Thanks it’s now going on my bucket list!
I work as a pool tech at Ojo Santa Fe that’s awesome you enjoyed!
One of our new favorite places! Thank you for all you do behind the scenes for the guests. It's a wonderful property!! 🥰
SANTA FE - is Freezing Snow for 4-5 months a year. Then Super Hot for 4 months in Summer. Nice to visit in the Spring or Fall. Wouldn't want to live there. FYI - The same Turquoise and other Jewelry is only half the price in Old Town in Albuquerque compared to Santa Fe. SIDE NOTE: My family lived in New Mexico for over 400 years. Until my parents got married and moved to Santa Monica, CA. Where I was born. But we would visit Albuquerque every summer when I was young.
I love New Mexico…..land of enchantment.
Thank you !
The stairs freaks me out I been there it’s well built solid wood ..
Great video! Thank you.
The Pantry, Ginga and La Fonda's Blue Room are old personal restaurant favorites of mine.
Steve, thanks for the recommendations! It helps everyone (including us) for planning their next trip to Santa Fe. Appreciate it! 👍 -Howard
I'll be moving to Santa Fe by the end of July for work (LANL), and this is by far the best video tour of Santa Fe and Los Alamos. Thank you.
Check out Santa Fe Foods! th-cam.com/video/gsoqzEaU518/w-d-xo.html
Katelyn, you definitely had me hooked, line, and sinker at the Kakawa Chocolate House. The Spa, those gorgeous Silkies & PUPPIES, Los Alamos and the Pueblo Village all looked like great things to visit. I bookmarked this video for future reference because there were SO many things that appealed not only to my tummy but my eyeballs lol. Thanks so much for sharing & safe travels wherever you are.
YES! Kakawa Chocolate House was a dream come true!! And who can say no to a spa AND puppies?! HAHA. It was such a fun week! When I was editing I was like holy cow, we did a lot! -Katelyn
Love Santa Fe!
Us too! So much to see and do!
Love how your video is so action packed with no extra fluff (other than the silky chickens and puppies haha)! I'll def keep these recs in mind when I visit Santa Fe myself next week!
Thanks, Stephen! We couldn't skip the silky chickens. 😂 How was your trip to Santa Fe?
@@NewstateNomads It was really great- what a nice city! Thanks again for your recs!
Greetings from Albuquerque. You two are adorable. Such infectious smiles!
I know how the stair case was built. He laminated the center boards around a big pine tree and he used the steps to help bend the boards as levers. Once he finished the outside railing he removed the pine tree from the center after the glue set up. We went to see it in 1997 and I could tell he laminated the big rails the steps were connected to. Being a carpenter for 20 years, I could see how he built it.
Thanks!
This video was packed with so much wonderful information! I loved the Bandolier Monument, Los Alamos area, Chocolate house and spa. Santa Fe is absolutely amazing
Loved this!! Tyty
Thank you Kimball! :)
We went to Kakawa too! So good. We were there during Covid so some things were closed.
We were a member of HH for at least 2 years before staying because we realized we weren’t prepared to dry camp. Finally we found Choteau Creek Brewery in SD and one in ? Nebraska maybe.. Diamond B Horse Motel both with electricity available.
What a beautiful and relaxing place and all of the food looks 5 star!! You two are absolutely living your best life!! ❤️❤️
Thank you Kim! We know how to eat, haha! 😂❤
Thank you for a beautiful video of New Mexico. The portion of Santa Fe tourism sites is the best I've seen! The OJO Spa looks phenomenal and that waffle breakfast "the bomb"!
So glad you enjoyed it Lori!! 🙌❤️
I live very close to Santa FE its magic. THANKS for the new tips. I ALWAYS go to the same places!!
There are always so many things I could comment on in your wonderful videos- I am going to concentrate on one: Jean Marie Auel and her books- The clan of the Cave Bear etc. I had to think of all those ( 6? in total I think) Whatever, I read them all. So when you clambered into that cave on that ladder I just kept being reminded of the stories. Top notch, the pools and the hamburgers. Also, I hadn't looked at the numbers but you've passed the 31k mark. Congratulations. Am so loving following you guys- to places I'll otherwise never see. Hope your week is going well. Cheers from me. 🤩 👍 🇳🇿 🙋♀️ 🇳🇱
How fun that the caves reminded you of those books! It was fascinating and really neat to stop and think about the people who once called them home. It's a beautiful place, fore sure! And thank you so much!! We are so excited to reach another milestone number. So glad you enjoyed this one! More to come from beautiful NM! ❤
That spa looked looks amazing! Someday I will need to get to the visitor center at Los Alamos. My dad was one of the pilots who flew into the nuclear cloud at Bikini Island (twice) to pick up the scientists… very interested in that. We were just in New Mexico, but in the Southern portion as it was still cold in the North. You sure packed a lot in! 🏆
Great job! Made me want to visit , even more.
I love your videos (have been watching all the Alaska installments)! It was so fun to watch you enjoy my state too! I've been to Ojo Santa Fe and LOVED it! Thank you for this amazing overview!
Trish, thanks so much and glad you're along for the journey! We loved our time in your beautiful state, and can't wait to explore more of New Mexico! 👍 -Howard
Hello! I live in Los Alamos, so happy you highlighted our cool, secret city on the hill! I came up with the idea of turning the pull off bathroom at the entrance of town into a replica of the main gate guard shack, then made it happen! So fun right?!? Next time you come back film the main hill road coming up into town. It's truly breath-taking. Happy travels!
Super Troopers!
Do your bones like NEW MEXICO?! WOO!
Going to Sante Fe in September and I found this video soooo helpful. Thank you for the great info!
Such a lovely video. Would love for you to come and visit our healing and horse riding center it's 5 minutes from the plaza I would love to meet you guys even if it just to give you a hug and you can meet our furry babies. Much love and light 🙏🐎🐎🐎
WONDERFUL PLACE.!!!!!
Tony, we agree! Glad you enjoyed the episode and hope you'll continue on the journey with us. 👍 -Howard
We were at Bandolier about a month before you guys. Your video brought back some wonderful memories. Safe travels!
Wow! I can’t believe we missed all this on our trip they Santa Fe!…that’s because we never made it TO Santa Fe! I-25 took us up TO it, but our campground turned out to be way out of town, and we had a family reunion to attend, so we had to push-on, completely missing one of my fav cities! 😢 Well, now that we’re able to, we will return soon for all the great adventures you once-again, took us on….HOWEVER, you will NOT get me to go up and down the cave dwelling ladders! Nope. No. Nada! And again, I blew any semblance of a diet I pretend to be on, just watching all the yummy goodies you found! Another, completely wonderful video Howard and Katelyn! Thanks again for your beautiful videography. 📹💻📷
"this is a parrot" points to something that looks nothing like a parrot lol
I am planning on visiting Santa Fe this May and will use this as a guide.
You two sure have had some fantastic adventures.
Thanks Dave!! ☺We definitely have!
Santa Fe seemed like it was awesome!
Very well done thanks for all your hard work and fear of heights therapy experiences thanks !!!!!!
Thanks so much Chris! Glad you enjoyed this one, and I'm glad I overcame my fears to climb those ladders! 😅
Woowww! Santa Fe looks amazing. What a wonderful place to visit! Anne would LOVE the chocolate store, for sure. 🤩😋 And the experience at the spa seem fabulous.
Anne & Eric
Oh yes, Anne you must visit Kakawa Chocolate House if you're ever in Santa Fe. You would love it! And the spa was such a treat!!!
Ax throwing...How cool is that!
You two always knock it out of the park. Your human Interest and news background cam really be seen and your production talents are without rival. Thanks so much - We are fellow 24D owners though ours in a 2021.
Aww James, thank you so much. That is the ultimate compliment. We really appreciate it! We work hard on our episodes so we are so glad to hear that is shows. And yay for fellow 24D owners!! 🙌❤☺
This was a nice video 🙏🏿
Santa Fe is definitely on my wish list! Looks beautiful! Resort looks incredible! Have to go try that waffle!
The waffle is amazing! Chef really did a great job with all the flavors. Santa Fe is a gem. Hope you can visit one day!! :)
What a great season to visit NM!! Looked like hardly any other visitors. Thanks for the vid
It was wonderful! Definitely felt like we had it to ourselves. Thanks, Lou! Glad you enjoyed it! 😄❤
We are going to visit Santa Fe and wondered where the camp spot was that you camped in? Love all the great info in this video as well as all your videos. Thanks for sharing your adventures.
Thanks
Y’all too cute 😂 love it ending ❤
I’ve been to Santa Fe New Mexico before and I love it I might go again next year
I live in Santa Fe and there are a couple places I have not been to.....that you have. Though I have been to both Kakawa Chocolate Houses ~ love the Chili Chocolate elixir and their chocolate truffles and brownies are great! Fun watching this!
Hi Rhonda! Yes, Kakawa is amazing! Hopefully we gave you some ideas on new places to try! We loved Santa Fe, what a beautiful place to call home. So glad you enjoyed our video! Thanks for watching! -Katelyn
New to your channel, heading to Santa Fe in three weeks, wonderful information 💛
Welcome and glad our video was helpful! Let us know how your trip to Santa Fe goes and any recommendations for us and other viewers! 👍 -Howard
Mysterious. LIKE A BEAST!
Your front image of the ojo resort and spa is what made me click on your video so beautiful. We moved to Santa Fe from LA about two years ago and now planning on moving to Hawaii this summer and was curious if there was anything on your video we had not done so I am glad I watch it because we have not being to that spa and will be going soon after watching this video 🤗🙏
Thank you so much and glad you found more to do in Santa Fe! Enjoy Hawaii, what island? We were married on Maui! Hope you'll continue on the journey with us. 👍 -Howard

Kenny and I loved Santa Fe! The food was so good and Bandelier was awesome. That spa looked amazing. We will have to catch that next time.
You definitely made up our minds about visiting Bandelier while we were out there! And yes, the food scene in Santa Fe is SOOO good! Definitely add Ojo Spa to your list next time, you'll love it!
Thanks for sharing we felt like we were watching old home week. We lived in Santa Fe for 15 years and recently moved to Portugal so it was nice to reminisce, made us miss those chilis though. You have to remember that Santa Fe is at around 7500 ft. in elevation and Los Alamos is higher so being out of breath is easy if you are not used to it.
We loved our time in Santa Fe! So glad we could take you on a trip down memory lane! Oh, Portugal sounds wonderful too! Ah yes, it is much higher elevation!

I’m visiting NM with my partner in mid February. Definitely checking your suggestions out. Thank you!
Love to hear that, Shara! Let us know how your NM travels go and any new recommendations from your visit! 👍 -Howard
The Bandelier area was breathtaking, fascinating. I couldn't do those ladders, though.
It was definitely intense! But sooo beautiful!
Very cool video. Thanks. Travel safe.
Thanks, Bob!
So much good info for my upcoming trip! I’ll be in NM for the Balloon Fiesta. The waffle looked super yummy, and seems like a chili hamburger is an area specialty. Oh and that chocolate shop! 😍
Oh how fun!! Yes! You'll definitely have to get a chili burger at some point while you're in NM. They are delicious!
Just visited Santa fe this Christmas and I wish I saw these lists before. My husband and I anniversary, I would have loved to stayed at ojo!! I went to Buffalo thunder hilton which was still lovely! But the foods we were lost and this would have helped lol. Now I gonna keep these in mind for next time!
Check out Santa Fe Foods! th-cam.com/video/gsoqzEaU518/w-d-xo.html
My husband might be getting a job out at the labs in Los Alamos, so I'm glad you showed some of that.
It is startlingly to see Scout running free. Glad her training now allows her this freedom and you, peace of mind.
Such a change!! She loves her freedom now and we love not having to worry about her running away anymore! 😅❤
Ha I just stumbled on your video and I was out cruising where you guys are camped and actually recognized your RV just now. Crazy
Glad you found our channel! Likely wasn't us though, maybe a look alike? Our videos are usually about a month behind real time. We were there in early March. Thanks for watching! ☺️
@@NewstateNomads oh yeah definitely one that looked similar then glad you guys enjoyed it here. It’s always fun to watch people from out of town coming and exploring I always find new things when I watch videos like this
I’m headed there for my bday in November
Wow, a great place to spend your birthday! Have a great time and let us know how your trip goes! 👍 -Howard
To cold and snowy to ride my motorcycle up to Santa Fe tomorrow (2.17.2023) so I’m taking the Rail Runner up from Albuquerque for a solo lunch and back.
Wow! Thanks for the video, you both have more guts than I do! Congrats Katlyn! 👍
Thanks Doug! It was intense, but I was glad I did it (once I was back on the ground, haha)
@@NewstateNomads You did great! Don't think I would have made it past the first ladder! You two are the best!
Nice video 👍👍👍👍👍🌺🌺🖖👌
This was such a fun one. Thanks so much for sharing. 🎉
I think that I'm going to call all of my drinks 'elixirs' from now on. 🤣💞
That Hello Kitty ish mug was super cool. 💖
Loved the silkies. 🐔 💜
That waffle looked amazing! 😲😋
Best burgers - 'I'll be the judge of that!' 🤣
I didn't know axe throwing was a big thing but we have places in western NY that offer it as well.
An actually physical book - how quaint. 🤣💜
I am so proud of Katelyn. I would've made it up the first ladder and Troy would've been filming the rest on his own. 👍
-Troy & Aimee
'Elixir' just sounds way fancier! Haha. Also a bit like a potion, which is fun lol All the food was incredible! And thank you!! I was so glad I did it once I was done 😅
Oh goodness I work at the spa!!
Hi Denise! We absolutely loved visiting! Such a beautiful property 🥰
Welcome I’m from New Mexico live 30 mins away for Santa fe
Love New Mexico; and such an informative video!! (as always). Coincidently, I spent the night in T or C two weeks ago (3/20); I dry camped in Elephant Butte state park in my van (Revel), enjoyed a couple of nice beers at the T or C Brewery and ate the (best I’ve had) green Chile cheeseburger (take out) ordered from across the street at the Grapevine. I met some very nice people and T/C was an unexpected pleasure. Other fun stops on my 8 day trip were Silver City, NM, and Tombstone and Bisbee, AZ. Cheers from the Denver area:)
How funny!! We must have just crossed paths! We also went to the brewery and I had that same burger from across the street. It was SO good!!!
@@NewstateNomads Ha! I won’t ask which beers you got:) … habanero sour and raspberry choc. porter for me👍Safe travels
Haha! I did a flight so I tried 6 of them 🙊🤣🍻
I would have been in the peanut gallery watching you... lol. I did good at not leaving a comment during you holding the chickens... lol... this is the first video that I have seen that actually made New Mexico look awesome. We did not find those cool spots when we went through but we are going back this year so thanks for opening up some options.
😂😂😂🐔 Aww we're so glad that we were able to showcase NM in a positive light! There are definitely some hidden gems in the state. We have two more great videos coming so hopefully you can enjoy the nicer side of NM!
I'm going to Albuquerque in October 2024.
Beautiful video. Did you guys try the Sopaipillas? Frito pie? Tortilla burgers? Hope you guys come again!!! There is so much to see!
Hi Mirna! Thanks so much for watching. Oh gosh, we didn't get to eat or do everything we wanted to! The weather was a bit tricky in early March, but yes! We'll definitely be back! :) -Katelyn
Colorado cold..mawaaaa Ilive in Ely, and we grill in shorts at -10..
The famous staircase was not made with a hand rail, that was added on later by the request of the older nuns who were afraid of falling off.
Larry, we heard that, too! Also, the underside of the staircase was finished in its current form much later. Thanks for watching! 👍 -Howard
Seems like I always end up drooling my way through the latter part of your videos.
😂 Haha!! We have that affect!
