Our sister site, Taos on the Cheap, has a Summer of Love sweepstakes free online, to win a fabulous $4000 trip for two to the heart of the Land of Enchantment

The prize inlcudes airfare, hotel, some great restaurant meals, $1000 certificate to spend in a Taos art gallery, museum admissions, a Harley-Davidson tour (if you have a motorcycle license), and a choice of outings (ski, raft, balloon, golf, or llama trek)–the whole deal.

They’re giving away one gym bag just for Sonoma on the Cheap readers (odds are much better than the giveaway open to everyone).
