Pagosa Brewing & Grill. is one of those places where all the locals go, where they do all the fun stuff, where they know you by first name and don’t take anything too seriously. Well, except for their food and beer. The recipient of numerous craft beer awards, the Certificate of Excellence by TripAdvisor...
The Santa Fe Train Diner along the I-90 in South Dakota is actually a part of “1880’s Town”, a roadside attraction fashioned after a movie set. There’s perhaps a hundred of signs along the freeway advertising the set, and by the time you actually reach the off-ramp, you feel compelled to check it out....

View Larger Map Rebecca’s Coffee House slowly filled with a group of unfamiliar faces, dressed in garb almost costume-like, but seemingly fitting for the eclectic clientele putting in orders for chai tea latte and vegan muffins.
