| On our way up to Montrose, Co to visit my daughter, we are going to overnight in Santa Fe. I love silver and turquoise so I was hoping some of you could give me an idea of where we could look, also any good places to eat and any other sites we could do that day.
Thanks |

Location: Oregon | The Indians will line up as vendors along the Palace of the Governors near the Plaza in Santa Fe, and I believe they have to be 'certified' (I THINK) in order to sell there. It's amazing. I have done a lot of shopping there and have always been happy. There have been vendors in the park near there as well where I've purchased some goodies. Love, love, love Santa Fe. |

Any kind, really. We are from South Texas, so we are used to Tex Mex. I would like to eat somewhere unique to New Mexico. Not really interested in big chain restaurants. |

Location: West Texas | I love Santa Fe! You just go down to the square and you will find all the shopping and eating you will need. I really like the La Plazuela restaurant in the La Fonda Hotel (my favorite hotel as well). Across the street you have to go to the Loretto Chapel and look at the staircase. I was married there!

Location: In the Hills of Texas | I love to visit Santa Fe. Like Katy said...we use to go the Governor's Palace to buy Indian goods. I'm pretty sure that only happens on the weekends. ( I checked and they are there everyday. There is 69 spots for them.)

| The Cowgirl is a must to eat at! BBQ, New Mexican food that won't burn your mouth and save.plenty of room for the baked potato for desert! There are some very expensive restaurants in Santa Fe but the Cowgirl runs middle of the road with great food. Enjoy |

I'd go for Gabriel's for something truly unique. |
