**Thanksgiving at Ka-Hoon Campground: A Celebration of Community and Laughter**
Thanksgiving is a time to come together, share delicious food, and create cherished memories. Here at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center, we were thrilled to host a festive celebration in the heart of the New Mexico desert. With our neighbors and friends joining in, the evening was filled with gratitude, laughter, and community spirit.
We enjoyed a mouthwatering feast featuring ham, turkey, and an array of side dishes generously brought by everyone who attended. The collaboration made the meal even more special, reminding us of the joy in sharing and contributing to a collective experience.
A highlight of the evening was our annual tradition—**Dirty Bingo with White Elephant gifts**. This fun and lighthearted game had everyone laughing and enjoying the creative, quirky surprises that came with each gift exchange. It’s always a hit, and this year was no different!
As we reflect on the warmth and joy of this year’s Thanksgiving, we are reminded of the incredible sense of community that makes Ka-Hoon Campground so unique. Whether it’s sharing a meal, playing games, or simply enjoying each other’s company, these moments are what truly matter.
We hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with love, laughter, and great food. Stay tuned for more events and gatherings as we move into the holiday season. Here’s to creating more memories together in our beautiful desert oasis!

Ka-Hoon Campground: A Desert Oasis for Unique Living & Off-Grid Adventures in New Mexico
**Finding Strength and Staying True: Lessons from Living Off-Grid in the New Mexico Desert**
Every day, we try to share inspiring moments from our life here in the New Mexico desert. But the reality is, not everything is perfect, and sometimes, things can be incredibly challenging. Living off-grid has brought both incredible rewards and tough moments, and while we don’t often open up about our private struggles, we know they’re part of this journey too.
When we moved out here, we expected challenges, but it’s been harder than we imagined. We’ve faced setbacks and at times even felt like walking away. Growing up in a tough environment taught me resilience. My family didn’t have much, but we made do, even in houses that barely kept the elements out. My parents worked hard to give us what they could, and they never gave up. That upbringing has given me the grit to survive and thrive here in the desert, to appreciate the simple things, and to push through when life gets tough.
### Building Inner Strength: A New Chapter in the Desert
One of the most surprising challenges out here hasn’t come from nature, but from dealing with people who are quick to judge, criticize, or put others down. Growing up poor, I know what it feels like to be ridiculed for being different. I was teased, tormented, and belittled for things beyond my control, and it left me feeling like I needed to hide who I was.
Moving here has taught me to stand up for myself and embrace who I am. It’s helped me find a voice to speak out against judgment, whether it’s against those who are different or against those who simply don’t fit into society’s mold. It’s shown me that not everyone is like the bullies I once faced, and that there are people out there who truly accept others for who they are.
### Embracing Differences and Respecting Each Other
Living off-grid, close to nature, has reminded me of a simple truth: we’re all part of nature, not above it. I care deeply about people and feel strongly that no one should be judged for simply being who they are. So often, people focus on others’ differences—whether it’s religion, lifestyle, financial status, or anything else. But why judge? If it doesn’t harm you or your life, why let it matter so much?
Ask yourself: Does someone else’s way of life really affect you? If not, maybe it’s time to let go of those judgments and let people live as they are. This journey off-grid has taught me to embrace life in all its diversity, and to welcome the differences that make us all unique.
