It's pretty risky but with proper planning you may be able to knock over a bank or jewelry store!

Taos Mesa brewery (in Taos, NM) recently opened up an "vintage trailer hotel" right next to their brewery - what a fun and unique concept!

And is giving them a ballpark figure first really such a faux pas?
