My crochet projects

Good Thursday morning! We didn’t post yesterday as not much was going on. It was cloudy, raining all day. We didn’t do much, I worked more on my crochet project, website.

The hut is finished, we still need to move the RVs, trailer, the small solar,and build the dog pen. We are hoping the way we move RVs, trailer will give a bigger dog yard. We also will be building another solar system.

Brent wants to move the stage to a better location,  where there will be some wind blockage, easier to build a roof. But moving the stage, may mean tearing it apart.. But we’ll have to see!

We have the NM 2024 Nomad Gathering in the Desert coming up in May.

We are also working on a few more events and will release information soon!

Ka-Hoon Plateau hame de Colquhoun

Some may notice a few differences.. We are still Plateau Hame De Colquhoun,  but we will be going by Ka-Hoon, which is how Colquhoun is pronounced.. You may even notice that the Art of tiny living page has been renamed. It will become Life with the Colquhoun page. (I screwed up and gave it the wrong name, and now I have to wait 30 days to change it.

We are doing this all as it’s easier to pronounce Ka-hoon and shorter. We no longer do the Tiny living stuff, so thereno reason to keep it. We will also be making changes to the website.

We’ve had so many people contact us asking us to do more lives. We aim at doing lives a few times a week here on Facebook on the “wrong named page” Ka-Hoon Campground and on the Plateau Hame De Colquhoun YouTube channel.  We hope to add Tiktok soon.

Don’t forget we have the NM 2024 Nomad Gathering in the Desert coming up and have a few more exciting events that we’ll be releasing soon! So please stay tuned, like this post, and follow us!!

Dogs morning routine

It’s Monday already. We have a few things planned today if the weather permits.

Advocatus Diaboli is supposed to come over and rehearse. A few neighbors are supposed to come and work on a project, which can be done as long as it doesn’t get windy.

I’m still working on my crochet project. I was able to figure out a way to make 2 at once. I probably been done with 2 yesterday, but idk why I kept screwing up and had to keep restarting.

Repairing the Hut that hosts the compost toilet.

We had a nice warm, sunny, very little wind Saturday.

Which made an almost perfect day to put the roof on the hut. We had purchased the Hut on the market place, the builder had reporpused corgated tin. The tin had screw holes that leaked. Inside the hut is a compost toilet.

We had a camper give us some  commercial refrigerator sealant tubes that we used to fill the holes.

After sealing the holes, we placed a sheet of osb over the tin.

While we worked, the dogs hung outside with us, did some sun bathing, and watched.

Brent is attaches the OSB, getting the roof ready for the next step.

The little solar panel attached to the hut is for a small charging station and runs the lights inside.

A neighbor had some extra rubber roofing that we sealed with the refrigerator sealant.

While putting the rubber roof, after putting the sealant on it, a gust of wind hit, and we found out that sealant gets stringy and  goes all over.

We all ended up getting covered in the sealant…

But we did get it finished and headed into town for a shower.
