Meet Vibria: Our Scottish Dragon at Ka-Hoon Campground
**A New Addition to Our Family: Meet Vibria**
Yesterday, something special happened. While scrolling through Facebook, I was reminded of when we brought home Litha nine years ago. Sadly, Litha passed away from cancer a few years back. While reflecting on that memory, I received a notification about a new post in a New Mexico pet group. I usually don’t get these alerts, so it immediately caught my attention. The post featured three puppies that were found on Cahoon Street in Roswell.
For those who don’t know, Brent’s original Scottish surname is Colquhoun, which is why we named our campground Plateau Hame de Colquhoun, also known as Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center. It felt like more than coincidence—the name Cahoon being another variation of Colquhoun seemed like a sign.
We believe things happen for a reason, so we made the six-hour round trip to pick up one of the puppies. We named her Vibria, which is Scottish for “female dragon.” She’s already stolen our hearts.
What do you think of our new furry addition?

Creepy Crawl Trick-or-Treating at Ka-Hoon Campground’s Halloween Hootenanny: Fun for All Ages!
**Creepy Crawl Trick-or-Treating Ideas for the Halloween Hootenanny**
The Halloween Hootenanny is just around the corner, and with it comes our favorite spooky event—the Creepy Crawl trick-or-treating! This unique experience lets campers go from site to site collecting treats, and it’s a fun way to get everyone involved in the Halloween spirit.
Here are a few treat ideas to make your campsite stand out during the Creepy Crawl:
– **Cupcakes:** Easy to make and decorate with spooky themes like ghosts, spiders, or pumpkins. Cupcakes are a great option for both kids and adults.
– **Classic Candy:** You can’t go wrong with the tried-and-true. Stock up on your favorite candies for a guaranteed hit.
– **Glow Sticks:** A fun and safe treat, especially for kids. They can double as safety accessories when it gets dark.
– **Mixed Drinks & Punches:** For the adults, why not prepare some festive Halloween-themed beverages? Just be sure to check armbands to verify age before serving.
– **Gummies:** From classic gummy bears to Halloween-themed shapes, these treats are always a crowd-pleaser.
**Important Reminder:** The Creepy Crawl is for all ages! While “adult” treats like alcoholic beverages or 420 goodies are welcome, it’s crucial to ensure you’re giving them only to those who are of legal age. Always check armbands to avoid any mix-ups. Also, please be mindful of those who do not consume alcohol or 420. Respect everyone’s choice, and remember that “no” means “no.”
**New Service Considerations:**
We’re also exploring the idea of offering a shuttle service for campers, either to pick up Walmart orders or to drive individuals into town. This would make it more convenient for those who need to run errands or grab supplies. However, we haven’t made a final decision on whether this service will be feasible or necessary. We’d love to hear your thoughts on this! Would you find a shuttle service helpful during your stay at Ka-Hoon Campground? Let us know!
Get ready for a night of spooky fun, delicious treats, and memorable moments at the Halloween Hootenanny!

Prepare for the Ultimate Halloween Hootenanny at Ka-Hoon Campground!
**Get Ready for the Halloween Hootenanny at Ka-Hoon Campground!**
The Halloween Hootenanny is just around the corner, and it’s time to start planning how you’ll make your campsite stand out during this spooktacular event! Here are some ideas to get your creative juices flowing:
### 1. **Spooky Campsite Decorations**
If you’re looking to give your campsite a hauntingly festive makeover, consider adding some of these elements:
– **Pumpkin Lanterns**: Carve out pumpkins and place LED lights inside to create a spooky glow around your site.
– **Cobwebs and Spiders**: String up faux cobwebs and scatter plastic spiders around your tent or RV to add a creepy touch.
– **Ghostly Figures**: Create ghost decorations using white sheets or fabric and hang them from trees or poles for a floating effect.
– **Graveyard Scene**: Make your own DIY tombstones out of cardboard or foam and set up a mini graveyard at your site.
### 2. **Simple Lighting for a Welcoming Glow**
If you prefer not to go all out with decorations but still want to participate in the fun, just adding some lighting can make a big difference:
– **String Lights**: Hang up orange or purple string lights around your campsite to add a festive atmosphere.
– **Lanterns**: Use lanterns to light up your space, creating a warm and inviting glow for trick-or-treaters.
– **Glow Sticks**: Place glow sticks in jars or hang them around your campsite for an easy, low-maintenance way to add some Halloween spirit.
### 3. **Creepy Crawl: A Trick-or-Treat Adventure**
Remember, our Creepy Crawl trick-or-treating event is for both adults and children, so feel free to get creative with your treats! If you plan to hand out “adult” treats (like spiked cider or special candies), please check arm bands to ensure no one underage receives them.
### **Important Schedule Update**
We’ve moved the **Costume Contest** to the same night as the Creepy Crawl! This way, everyone can enjoy a full evening of costumes, treats, and Halloween fun. So start planning your costumes now—whether you’re going for spooky, funny, or creative, we can’t wait to see what you come up with!
For more details on the event and camping reservations, be sure to check out our website. Get ready for a hauntingly good time at the Halloween Hootenanny!

From Campers to Neighbors: Welcoming New Friends to Our Desert Community!
**Embracing New Beginnings in Our Desert Community**
Today marks the first day in months that we don’t have a camper staying with us, and the place feels a bit empty. However, it’s a good kind of empty, filled with the warmth of friendships made and the excitement of new beginnings.
The camper who just checked out came to us when they transferred from their old job at an Amazon distribution center in Colorado to the new Amazon distribution center in Los Lunas. During their stay, they became more than just guests—they became friends. Our little community here in the desert grew to know and appreciate them, and we’re thrilled to hear that they’ve fallen in love with the area just as much as we have.
They’re not going far, either—they’re in the process of buying some land not too far from us. So, while it might feel like a goodbye, it’s really just a “see you soon.” We’re excited to officially welcome them as permanent members of our growing community. Here in the desert, it’s never really goodbye; it’s more of a “welcome home.”

Navigating to Ka-Hoon Campground: What You Need to Know Before You Go!
**Navigating to Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center: Why You Should Avoid Powerline Rd.**
Planning a trip to Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center? It’s important to know the best routes to take for a smooth journey. While your GPS might suggest Powerline Rd., we highly recommend avoiding it for several reasons.
### Why You Should Avoid Powerline Rd.
Powerline Rd., though not the worst road in terms of washboard, presents unique challenges. The road has more ruts and sharp turns, especially in the area we call the “switchbacks,” where the drops can be steep and tricky. This can be particularly challenging for trailers and low-profile vehicles. Additionally, Powerline is a private road that may have gated sections, restricting access without prior approval.
### The Recommended Route
For a safer and more comfortable drive, we provide detailed directions on our website that guide you along the preferred route. This road, though more frequently used and slightly more washboarded, has fewer ruts than Powerline Rd. and is much wider, making it more accessible for most vehicles.
### GPS Considerations
We strongly advise against relying on GPS navigation when heading to Ka-Hoon Campground. GPS systems tend to direct drivers down roads that are far worse than Powerline Rd., which could lead to unnecessary complications on your journey.
### Get the Best Directions
For the safest and most reliable route, please visit our website for step-by-step directions. Avoid the pitfalls of unpredictable roads and ensure your visit to Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center starts off on the right track.

Desert Community Rallies Together: Home Dialysis Help & BBQ Fun!
**Community Support and Togetherness in the Desert**
As previously discussed, having a supportive community is vital, especially in the remote desert where assistance from state and county officials can be challenging to obtain. Here, our neighbors have become more than just people living nearby; they are family.
One of our neighbors, who undergoes dialysis in Albuquerque three times a week, faced financial strain due to the travel expenses. Recently, he was approved for home dialysis, but needed to make some modifications to his home. In response, our community rallied together to help. We removed cabinets and benches to make space for the new equipment and uncovered additional issues that will require future attention.
We extend our gratitude to Red Gorilla Studios for their generous donation of a recliner, which is essential for his treatment.
After a few hours of hard work, we celebrated with a BBQ, practiced archery, enjoyed some music, and relaxed together. This sense of community support and togetherness makes all the difference in our lives out here.
