Weekend in Gallup

[Charlie Plasters, SASS#60943]

Looks like we might be going to Gallup for a weekend b'day trip for a friend in Jan. Any reccommendations on where to stay and things to do? We'll likely have the ol' dog with us so need a place that is canine friendly. Thanks in advance.

My wife likes to shop the Indian jewelry outlets on the Zuni reservation when we have time. Prices are very good.

Have a meal at Earl's. Great food. The local Navajo and Zuni artists show off their stuff there but won't bug you.

 

Richardson's Trading post is a fascinating place. We've bought a few Navajo blankets and some jewelry there.

The Rex Museum has some nice historical exhibits and the Santa Fe Railroad Depot does too.

 

City Electric has a boatload of leathercrafting supplies.

 

 

The funky old El Ranch hotel is interesting. All the western actors used to stay there when filming in the area.

The Comfort Inn and The Econo Lodge are pet friendly.

If you have the time the fishing in the San Juan River below Navajo Dam is incredible - bring a fly rod.
