A couple of weeks ago Brent, Anne and I had gone and stayed at an RV park in Albuquerque. While sitting outside some other RVs commented on how pretty the views are there. We realized then that we are spoiled as we had just complained that there wasn’t much for views. Here are some of our views up here on the mesa.
You are welcome to come enjoy the views yourself by coming to one of the events, or camping. Visit our website for more information.
Haunted Hell Ride October 21 Gates open 6:00pm to 9:00pm

A night of scares and mysteries. The Haunted Hell hay ride is not appropriate for all ages. If you have any health concerns we ask that you refrain from going.
Not a lot to report.. We have been working planning the Haunted Hay Ride a community event that is being held up here on the mesa in October 21st. We also have a private event in November, and are working on doing another concert of some type here in the near future.
@JAFO Productions which is the music production, sound engineer part of the Plateau Hame De Colquhoun LLC, will be running lights and sound at an upcoming @B Town Bike Rally Belen New Mexico where I’ll also be running a booth for @plateauhamedecolquhoun .
Other Projects: The famous shower, we’ve been working on for awhile, has experienced some issues that have put the project on a temporary hold. We are hoping soon to start building another 5k solar system, The issue with this project is the cost of lumber. Which is causing us to find alternative low cost frames for the panels. We’ve been trying to find bigger pallets that the panels will fit on.
We also like to build a deck over the blue moon which includes a roof over the stage, again cost of lumber and lack of finding good shape, low cost recycled lumber, tin..
Modern Pioneerism is using recycled or inexpensive items that help us survive living off grid on harsh land that no one has lived on before.
The Music in the Desert ” Ladrones Quest ” here Plateau Hame De Colquhoun is over. We had a reasonable turnout, had a lot of fun and look forward to future events!
Day of the event we had temps as high as 110. With very little shade here in the desert, those temps made it hard to setup the gear, canopies. Luckily though around 11 pm it started to cool off. But one issue we had was once it cooled off we got tired. I feel asleep in the lawn chair. Music went until 3am. Breaking down wasn’t to bad due to the cooler temps. Now today the next day, it’s just as hot, we all are tired and a bit crabby.
What did we learn you may ask.. Next event we would like to get a good night’s sleep the night before (which we hadn’t as it didn’t cool down much the night before) and hopefully able to get a nap before hand. (We did drink a lot of water and Gatorade).
One more day for Music in the Desert!! Gates open at 6 pm, come hang out, listen to music, sing, dance, roast s’morse, hot dogs over the bonfire, camp, drink, 420 friendly.
We are working on but nothing confirmed yet on having hotdogs and hamburgers available to purchase.
This is a free event.. BYOB, family friendly. I Survived Music in the Desert Tshirts will be available to purchase!
Donations of gas or funds to keep gas in the generator are welcome. Contact us for information.
