Desert Dog Drama: Dreugan the Supervisor, Vibria’s Zoomies & Lurch the Butler**
Life at **Plateau Hame De Colquhoun** and **Ka-Hoon Campground & Event Center** isn’t just about off-grid living, Music in the Desert, and paranormal moments—it’s also full of hilarious dog personalities who run the place like their own desert kingdom.
Today’s episode of “Dog Drama in the Desert” stars our three furry legends:
**🐾 Dreugan** – the couch commander and full-time supervisor.
**🐾 Vibria** – the tiny zoomie tornado with the voice of a little girl.
**🐾 Lurch** – the proper butler, keeping order… or trying to.
In this short, funny video, Vibria tries her best to get Lurch to play, zooming around with pure puppy energy. Lurch, in full butler mode, attempts to maintain “household order,” while Dreugan oversees the chaos with the patience of a seasoned king.
These moments are part of what makes off-grid desert life at **Colquhoun** so special. Whether we’re livestreaming **Music in the Desert**, working around the campground, or dealing with random trespassers, the dogs always bring humor, love, and personality into the mix.
If you need a laugh today, this clip is for you.
Life is better with dogs—and even better with desert dogs who think they run the place.

They Drove Through Our Property at Night… AFTER Passing the No Trespassing Sign! (Caught on Camera)
**Respect in the Desert: What To Do If You Accidentally Drive Onto Private Property**
Living off-grid at **Plateau Hame De Colquhoun (Ka-Hoon Campground & Event Center)** means valuing safety, boundaries, and respect. Our desert home and campground are surrounded by open land, and it’s not unusual for people to get lost while exploring. But even in remote areas, **No Trespassing signs matter** — and respecting them keeps everyone safe.
Recently, a vehicle drove past our clearly marked **No Trespassing sign** and continued through our private road at Ka-Hoon Campground. Instead of stopping to speak with us, the driver sped off the moment they saw us. Incidents like this can be concerning, not only for our safety but for the peace of everyone who stays, camps, or participates in our events, including **Music in the Desert** livestream nights.
If you ever find yourself lost in the desert and accidentally turn onto someone’s land, here’s the right thing to do:
### ✔️ **Stop and talk to the property owner**
Most off-grid residents are friendly and understanding. If you made a wrong turn, just say so.
### ✔️ **Do not keep driving forward**
Continuing through private land raises safety concerns, especially late at night or when lights are shut off.
### ✔️ **Do not speed away**
Rushing off makes the situation appear suspicious, even if your intentions are harmless.
### ✔️ **Respect the signs**
When a sign says **No Trespassing**, it’s there for safety, liability, and privacy — not to be ignored.
At **Ka-Hoon Campground**, we welcome respectful visitors, campers, musicians, and community members for year-round events, Off-Grid Talks, Music in the Desert livestreams, karaoke nights, and our unique Halloween-inspired experiences. We value honesty, communication, and neighborly respect.
If you make a mistake, just stop.
Talk to us.
**Respect goes a long way in the desert.**

Happy birthday, Brent Colquhoun!!!!

It’s a Sunny 26 degree Monday morning. Today, we are heading to Albuquerque to get the windshield replaced on the car. Last week, while driving, we heard a loud pop, and a spider web crack almost magically appeared. Luckily, https://www.facebook.com/safelite has a holiday special. Today is Brents birthday. we had planned to go to the Monte Vista Fire Station and eat, but it appears they are temporarily closed 😦 Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Morning Coffee at the Colquhoun

It’s a sunny but chilly Saturday morning. I like to wrap up in my blanket and put a cap on while it warms up in the morning. Since Bryandt is visiting, it leaves less couch for the dogs to sit next to me (Dreugan and Amigo bicker over the spot on the couch). Well, this morning, Amigo decided that since Dreugan has the spot on the couch , he’ll become an 80lb lap dog. I think he’s enjoying it. Cap was a holiday present, has a rechargeable light and it’s warm.. Brent and Anne say I look like a Poke ball with the cap on.. lol
