There are plenty of reasons to visit Santa Fe which have nothing to do
with Trader Joe's. If I lived in the Denver area I wouldn't make a run
either to Albuquerque or Santa Fe *just* for Trader Joe's. I'd wait until I
had some other reason to go to either place and then incorporate a visit to
Trader Joe's into the rest of the trip.
