oh now if you want nominations in New Mexico I could talk your ear off. There's stunning countryside pretty much anywhere you care to leave the interstate.
I remember when I was in Las Vegas one summer I was restless and bored one morning and decided to see where 7th Street goes. And danged if it didn't wind through some hills, pass an adobe church painted with the blessed virgin, then a hot springs and a by-gosh castle before heading into the mountains and some drop-dead grogeous views off some hairpin turns, then dead end at a campground parking lot in the Santa Fe National Forest about 25 miles later. One thing you learn in New Mexico though is respect for exactly how far from anywhere you can get. Like Chaco Canyon. You make sure the gas tank is full and the spare tire has air BEFORE you go.
