Hey there! Looks like we’re having another cloudy morning. It’s been three days since we’ve seen a good amount of sunshine. But no worries, the solar went down this morning for a few hours until the clouds started clearing up and we were able to get a good charge. So, things are looking up and we can hope for a sunny day ahead!

We’ve had a few cloudy and windy days, but yesterday, we finally got a break, and it cleared up long enough to burn the tumbleweeds that were caught on the dog fence. We’re hoping that today brings some sunshine to charge the solar panels. Have a great day!

Last night we took a break and went watched one of our favorite bands Amigo The Devil ! We would love to have Amigo come play here at Ka-Hoon Plateau Hame De Colquhoun ! Wouldn’t it be cool to see him play under the New Mexico skies, with mountains in background and the openness of the desert?! I think it would be.. I wasn’t able to get a recording of Flogging Molly as we ended up moving towards the back, we ran to the bathroom due to the crowd. (I don’thandle being crowded), and sadly I couldn’t see anything
A while back, @Advocatus Diaboli & The GLƁ asked me to make some items for his merch table. I had never crocheted anything other than blankets before, but Brent and AD (Advocatus) encouraged me to try. I succeeded and made the items AD asked for, as well as some for the Dusty Nail General Store. What do you think?
We have built two solar systems thus far. The first one consists of six 200-watt panels, a 24-watt 3k inverter, and two 100-Ah batteries. This 3k system powers Anne’s Lazy Daze Class C RV and a charging station inside the Grey trailer.
The second system is an 8k system with 12 200-watt panels, a 48-watt 8k inverter, and 12 250-Ah batteries. It is supposed to run the Stage, Music Studio, and Greenroom, but currently, our Class A Southwind RV is using it. The plan is to build the next system that’s six 500-watt panels, a 48-watt 5k inverter, and six 250-Ah batteries, which will run the RV and Grey trailer. At that point, the 3k system will solely power Anne’s RV.
