Look into the high road and low road between Santa Fe and Taos. Forget which has the art galleries along the way but both had lots of great scenery.
We had a late flight home, so spent part of our last day in ABQ. Thought the National Museum of Nuclear Science & History was cool.
If this is the one on the military base, you should plan ahead. IIRC you must make a reservation or something to get permission to enter the base. Also, plan on having your car inspected for disallowed stuff as well as driver's license and insurance card checked at the gate. Allow some extra time for this.
I've very much enjoyed the drive to Los Alamos, about an hour beyond Santa Fe, as well as the museum and historic house there.
