General Announcements

We’ve been dealing with the heat and working on staying cool.

A few solar issues arose recently, including a cable being torn off the combiner box. We are unsure how this happened but are currently working on better safeguarding the area to prevent future incidents.

Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band will be performing at Stage Luchetti on June 29th.

Needed

Additionally, we are in need of an old 10×10 canopy frame (or equivalent). We don’t need the top; the frame doesn’t need to be perfect but should be repairable. We plan to decorate it with fairy lights and set it up in the Cahoots Courtyard. If anyone has something that could work, please contact us.

Thank you all for your continued support!

A Tranquil Saturday at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center in Rural New Mexico

Ka-Hoon Campground

It’s a languid Saturday here in the heart of New Mexico, where the warmth of the day encourages us to find ways to stay cool. Amidst this tranquil setting, I thought I would share a delightful moment captured on camera: a rabbit hopping through our grounds and Dreugan, our faithful companion, displaying his charming antics with a touch of bravado.

In this serene desert landscape, life moves at a gentle pace. The simplicity of our surroundings allows us to appreciate the small joys and whimsical occurrences that make each day unique. The video we captured offers a glimpse into these moments, showcasing the natural beauty and quietude of our off-grid existence.

### The Allure of Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center

At Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center, we pride ourselves on providing a haven where guests can unwind and reconnect with nature. Our unique setting, free from the trappings of modern conveniences like electricity and internet, offers a sanctuary for those seeking solace and simplicity. Here, everyone is welcome, irrespective of their background or beliefs. We cherish the diversity of our visitors and strive to create an environment where no one feels like an outsider.

### Embracing Nature and Community

Our mission is two-fold: to support our simple way of life and to preserve the natural beauty of the Southern point of the West Mesa. By protecting this land from modern development, we aim to maintain its pristine condition for future generations to enjoy. We invite you to join us, whether it’s to camp under the vast New Mexico skies, participate in our events, or simply share in the tranquility of this unique desert oasis.

By revisiting the charm of rural life from a century ago, we hope to inspire a deeper appreciation for the natural world and the simple pleasures it offers.

Thriving in the Desert: Life at Ka-Hoon Campground and Plateau Hame De Colquhoun

Ka-Hoon Campground

Embracing the Desert Life: Inspiration and Resilience at Ka-Hoon Campground

Living in the New Mexico desert brings a unique set of challenges and rewards. At Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center, we experience the raw beauty of nature every day. Here’s a glimpse into our life in the desert and how we find inspiration amidst the heat and rugged landscape.

#### Surviving the Desert Heat

The desert heat can be intense, but we’ve adapted to make the most of it. Our days start early, taking advantage of the cooler morning temperatures to get our outdoor tasks done. By midday, when the sun is at its peak, we retreat indoors to stay cool. Our dogs, too, find refuge inside, with plenty of water and an occasional misting to keep them comfortable. Despite the heat, we find ways to stay productive, whether it’s handling paperwork, working on music, or crafting.

#### Nature’s Drama: Turkey Buzzards and Free-Ranged Cattle

The desert is alive with wildlife. Just the other day, we witnessed turkey buzzards fiercely protecting their kill near our car—a stark reminder of the untamed spirit of nature. On the flip side, there are moments of serene beauty, like watching free-ranged cattle graze in the golden rays of a New Mexico sunrise. These experiences, both raw and tranquil, enrich our lives and connect us deeply to the land.

#### Finding Beauty in Everyday Moments

Living in the desert isn’t just about surviving; it’s about thriving and finding beauty in everyday moments. The vast, open landscapes, the stunning sunsets, and the star-filled night skies are constant sources of awe. Each day brings new experiences and challenges that test our resilience and inspire us to appreciate the simple pleasures of off-grid living.

#### Building a Community

Ka-Hoon Campground is more than just a place to live; it’s a community. We gather around the communal firepit, the Colquhoun Hearth, sharing stories, music, and laughter under the stars. Our events, like the monthly Music in the Desert Saturdays and the annual Drum Circle on the Longest Day of the Year, bring people together to celebrate life and nature.

#### Join Us on This Journey

Whether you’re a camper, an event attendee, or someone interested in off-grid living, we invite you to join us on this journey. Experience the challenges and joys of desert life, and find inspiration in the unique beauty of New Mexico.

Members-Only Memorial Day Potluck at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center

Ka-Hoon Campground

Yesterday, we hosted a members-only Memorial Day potluck at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center, and it was a resounding success! We had a fantastic turnout, and everyone brought delicious dishes to share. One of the highlights was Brent’s delectable Lemon Pepper Chicken, which everyone enjoyed.

After the meal, the kids had a blast crafting heart stuffies, a fun and creative activity that kept them engaged. Once they finished, they settled down in the Greenroom to watch a movie, providing a relaxing end to their busy day.

While the kids were crafting and watching movies, the adults enjoyed the serene ambiance around the bonfire in Cahoots Courtyard. It was a perfect opportunity to unwind, chat, and gaze at the breathtaking New Mexico skies.

“Desert Live Rehearsal: Advocatus Diaboli and Shamshini Shine Under Full Moon”

Ka-Hoon Campground

Thrilling Thursday Night: Live Rehearsal and Full Moon Magic

Last Thursday was nothing short of awe-inspiring here at Plateau Hame De Colquhoun. We hosted a live rehearsal with Advocatus Diaboli and Shamshini on the Clapper platform, which turned into an unforgettable evening. One of our campers even joined us, sitting in to listen and eventually participating in the session.

#### Live Rehearsal on Clapper

The energy was palpable as Advocatus Diaboli and Shamshini performed live. Their music resonated beautifully under the vast desert sky, creating an intimate yet electrifying atmosphere. Broadcasting the rehearsal on Clapper allowed our online community to join in, further enriching the experience.

#### Camper Participation

The presence of one of our campers added a special touch to the night. Enthralled by the music, they couldn’t resist joining the performance, turning the rehearsal into a collaborative and interactive event. It was a perfect example of the community spirit we cherish here at Ka-Hoon Campground.

#### Embracing the Full Moon

After the live session, we all took a moment to pause and appreciate the inspiring full moon. The moonlight bathed the desert in a serene glow, making it the perfect backdrop for reflection and connection. It was a magical conclusion to a night filled with music, camaraderie, and natural beauty.

#### Why We Love These Moments

Events like these are what make living off-grid in the desert so special. They remind us of the importance of community, the power of music, and the beauty of our natural surroundings. Each gathering strengthens our resolve to protect and preserve this unique way of life.
