**Morning Routines at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center**
Living off-grid at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center comes with its unique set of challenges and quirks, especially when it involves our furry family members. My mornings are anything but ordinary, thanks to Weillow, our 14-year-old dog with early-stage dementia.
Every day begins the same way: I let the dogs out, then crawl back into the warm bed, delaying the inevitable until I need to start the heat. But Weillow has her own agenda. She paces back and forth, ensuring I don’t stay in bed too long. It’s her way of telling me she needs to go outside immediately—or else!
Once she’s done her business, I make her stay out longer than she’d like, just to be sure. My hope is that she’ll return to her warm bed and settle down for a few more hours until it’s warmer outside. But Weillow has other plans.
Within 15 to 30 minutes, she starts pacing again, convincing me she needs to go out—despite just having been outside. Even when I know she’s fine, I still get up, just in case. The real kicker? Once I’m up, she happily goes back to her bed to sleep. It’s her little morning game to get me moving.
The other dogs have caught on to her antics. As soon as I try to send Weillow back to bed, they decide it’s their turn to shower me with kisses and sit on me, ensuring I stay up for good.
These little routines, while tiring, are part of what makes life here so special. Whether it’s caring for our dogs, managing the campground, or enjoying the peaceful desert mornings, every moment adds to the charm of life at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center.
Weillow may be aging, but her determination to keep me on my toes (or out of bed) reminds me to cherish these moments. It’s a reminder that even in the simplicity of daily routines, there’s love, laughter, and a lot of wet noses to keep things interesting.

Embracing Challenges: Life Off-Grid at Ka-hoon Campground and Event Center in the New Mexico Desert
Living off-grid in the New Mexico desert at Ka-hoon Campground and Event Center presents its own unique set of challenges. When we first arrived, the isolation was palpable – we were alone, unfamiliar with the area, and lacked local support. Sparse neighbors were rarely home, leaving us feeling vulnerable in our solitude.
However, amidst the vast desert landscape, our greatest challenge wasn’t the elements themselves, but rather the human element. It was here, in this remote setting, that I experienced profound personal growth. I learned to assert myself and protect my family in ways I never imagined.
Living off-grid in the desert has been a transformative journey, teaching me resilience, self-reliance, and the importance of standing up for what matters most. Though the challenges have been daunting, the lessons learned have been invaluable, shaping me into a stronger and more capable individual than ever before.
