Happy Tuesday Dec. 12! It was a little warmer last night. 43 inside this morning before starting the heat.
The oldest son Bryandt is coming here in a few days to spend the holidays with us, it’s been years since we’ve had us all together for the holiday. It will be nice having us all together.
Coming from a bigger family holidays were always busy and full of people. I do wish everyone could come, but we all will be together in our thoughts and probably a video call.
December 24th is my Mother’s Linda Rone birthday, her and Dad’s 50th Anniversary! Please stop by their page and wish them Happy Birthday and Happy Anniversary!! They both could use a pick me up as Dad is in the hospital due to Pneumonia. Love you both!!

Cold Monday morning 21 degrees out. Woke up to 35 inside temps, I got the heater going and its warming up nicely in here. Waiting on the coffee to percolate and then we’ll be set for starting a new day. I’m not sure what the plans are today. Sometime this week we need to start moving items around and get the spot setup for the Happy HORRORDAZE “Axe-Travaganza” on Saturday!!
Watch the live stream right from the comfort of your home! Drink, enjoy your 420 and listen to Advocatus Diaboli and Shamshini! Starts at 3 pm MST.

Yesterday Friday morning started out nice, we planned to mow and start cleaning on the 10 acres. But as soon as we went outside a 40 mph wind hit, blow off a heavy tarp (actually is a big pool cover) we had spread out to dry off to be folded up and put into storage. The tarp took out a few poles along the way. We rushed and got the tarp secured, (thank you Advocatus Diaboli for helping!) couldn’t fold it due to the winds. The high winds stayed until into the evening. Which meant we got nothing we had planned to do done.
Today, it probably won’t be as windy. But we have errands to run to get things ready for a private event tomorrow.
This is why it takes us forever to get anything done.. But the dogs got some playtime before the winds hit!
Life of living off-grid in the desert…
We are now a week away from Happy HORRORDAZE “Axe-Travaganza” !!

Rainy, cloudy Thursday morning. We finally the store Dusty Nail General Store set up. We been brain storming on how to utilize the sore while campers are here, as none of us really want to go sit inside waiting. Not all campers want to purchase or look which is fine with us. The answer was so simple we don’t know why we hadn’t figured it out before.
We have set up the store as honor pay, campers can go in at their own convenience and purchase items if they choose. We ask them to write down their purchase as some items belong to neighbors.. Hand made purses, eggs (we only add if know we’ll have campers).
So far it has worked out good. Yes we risk theft of items, but we’ve done the honor pay during festivals and found they work quite well. We also only add a few of everything.
I do not have sage sticks out, as I need to make some. Which means me taking time to do it. Maybe something good to do on a rainy cloudy Thursday….
It is weird how friendships happen. We never thought we’d ask a band to come play here an become such close friends. Brent has been working with them pretty much everyday. It has gotten him back into to writing his own material. Seeing the passion come back that he has lost for a few years, has made it all worth it. We can’t thank Advocatus Diaboli enough for what him and the band has done.
Brent has written most of the songs that Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band will be performing during the Happy HORRORDAZE “Axe-Travaganza” !
It’s going to be a fun live concert, not a kid friendly concert. If you are easily offended don’t watch. Everyone else come laugh, and enjoy the show!!
Visit Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band website and ours for more information.
Coming soon a little Hell raising fun Happy HORRORDAZE “Axe-Travaganza” We’ll be doing a little soul searching and hope to reap the benefits of a ghoulish good time. Keep watch for the date, you know the devil is in the details! A落 落D
Another brisk New Mexico morning. But that’s okay, the sky is clear, the sun is rising, I started the heater, and the coffee. Come join us, hangout and drink some Highland Grog coffee, but better hurry it doesn’t last long.
Happy HORRORDAZE “Axe-Travaganza” isn’t to far away! This is a free live performance by Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band !
We had seen Advocatus Diaboli perform while visiting Wisconsin a few years ago and loved the show. While looking for a band to preform for the Hayride we thought of them, but figured it’d be a long shot or out of our budget.
But to our surprise they said yes!! Not only did they come and perform, they paid their own way in and charged us a small fee to perform, which we got back. Lol They had been wanting to get out of the cold, and try to branch out to other states, so when we asked they thought it’d be a nice trial to see if they liked it.
I’m guessing they did as they bought property right next to ours, and plan to help us by performing during the Nomad Gathering in May and few other events in the works. In return we are helping them to settle in and setting up their social media and website.
If you are looking for a variety show of covers, parody and originals with some comedy the Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band are open to potential bookings within New Mexico, Texas, Colorado and Arizona and the “unholy” world at large!
