🚗✨ Have you visited the Route 66 Visitor Center yet?

With Route 66 celebrating its **100th anniversary this year**, it’s a fun spot to explore a little Albuquerque history!

From vintage Route 66 signs and local artwork to photos, events, and a giant dry-erase mural that kids can color on, there’s plenty to explore. 🙌

🎶 **Good to know:** The Visitor Center also hosts a fall concert series through mid-October! The little amphitheater is **not shaded**, so bring your own shade and come prepared. ☀️

📍 And one more thing to keep in mind: the Visitor Center is located on the **far west side of Albuquerque**, so plan for a bit of a drive depending on where you’re coming from.

Save this one for a family outing and check CABQ.gov for upcoming events and details! ❤️ taken in Albuquerque, New Mexico by @laneelee

All smiles in our western getups before @dollyparton concert @hollywoodbowl in 2016.

Knowing what a big fan I was, fiancé @brianjayroth actually reached out to her agent to ask if #dollyparton would sing at our wedding as a surprise gift for me.

👀The agent actually replied … swipe left to see the incredible ask & kind reply.

🦋💕💖Thank you Dolly for all the love, generosity, music & sparkle you gave us all.

We will always love you, too. #letherfly❤️ by @laneelee

Have you been to the new 3 pm choose-your-adventure, dim sum-style happy hour @izanamirestaurant in #santafe?

Highly recommend. Stellar bites by Chef Kiko Rodriguez & rare sake by co-owner / sake sommelier Deborah Fleig. My latest article for @newmexicomag in the Aug 2026 issue spills the tea… or sake rather. by @laneelee

#protectchaco

I discovered Chaco Canyon’s mystical magic for the first time in April with @thefivegraces Glamping trip in collaboration with @heritageinspirations.

There’s only a few days left to leave your protest comment to stop expanded drilling at Chaco.

Link in comments to do so. Make your voice heard: #protectchaco. by @laneelee

💍Happy 9th anniversary to us! #nineandohsofine

It was a magical wedding full of quirk & color (piñatas, Pom-poms, disco balls, square dancing, etc) on my grandma’s lawn in Ignacio followed by a wedding party rafting trip the next day in Durango.

I love you @brianjayroth. Thank you for nine & counting great years! by @laneelee

Always fun to find one of my articles in the wild, I spotted the latest issue of @tablemagazine_newmexico getting coffee @littlebearcoffeeco. Thank you editor @juliapleonard for the assignment!

📐🍽️It's about the “Taos Triangle”: 3 new wave restaurants in Taos: @juliette.hotelwilla ; @tomorrowtaos & @suchness_diningroom , plus the pioneer of the movement in town @cornerofficetaos with an incredible wine list.🍷

And @casagallina is a wonderful b&b to stay at in @visittaos , where you can take a tango lesson with the owner Richard & hang out with his pet hens. 🐣💃 taken in Taos, New Mexico by @laneelee

Thrilled to see my hotel stories make the @newmexicomag cover in 2025 (@arrivehotels Abq ) & now 2026 (@hotel_willa Taos).

The hotels, inns & Bnbs in the March 2026 travel edition are all fantastic stays, but special shoutout to the ones I was able to cover:

😄Just one of the many benefits of visiting your mom…she unearths vintage photos, revealing your questionable fashion and hairstyle choices. #1980s #genx #hairspray by @laneelee
