You might have noticed all the color that was popping up in my Instagram this week. Well that's because we were staying at the awesome Saguaro in Scottsdale.

After only tapping a small fraction of what there is to explore in New Mexico, I know Santa Fe will definitely be a place I visit again.

Last weekend we roused ourselves out of bed to get a nice short fall hike in at Kenosha Pass. About an hour outside of Denver, we are so lucky to be able to enjoy the beauty of nature and the open forest so close to home.

When I was invited on a special weekend getaway with fellow foodies, local entrepreneurs, and creative types, I only had one answer. A resounding yes.

The view was unbelievably high above Moab and all you could see was the beautiful desert landscape as far as the horizon with tall snowcapped peaks dotting the landscape.

After entering Canyonlands we were immediately faced with some of the highest views of the national park we could imagine.

Leadville has a fascinating history, full of wild west characters, mining, striking it rich, and historical celebrities.

If you missed it, I went on a trip to New Orleans a few weeks ago (part one and part two) where I ate entirely way too much and rolled myself into some bars for plenty of music and dancing.

After walking around all day we headed into the Business District, where there are plenty of amazing restaurants to try.
