SKALLYWAG Preview â A New Original Pirate Song Sets Sail
Discover the New Original Pirate Song “SKALLYWAG”
If you’re a fan of original pirate songs, sea shanty music, Celtic folk rock, Scottish-inspired storytelling, and independent music, you’re in for a treat.
“SKALLYWAG” by Brent Calhoun, Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band is an original song that combines witty storytelling, memorable pirate characters, nautical adventures, and an unforgettable sing-along chorus.
This post features a preview of the song. To hear the complete release, visit the Advocatus Diaboliprofile.
Some songs are created to entertain. Others are created to make people stop, think, and search for meaning. “Feed Us Breath” by Brent Calhoun is a deeply symbolic song that explores the human experience from the moment life begins to the struggles we face throughout our journey.
This short video preview only captures a piece of the message behind the song. The full performance can be found on the Advocatus Diaboli profile.
The Meaning Behind Feed Us Breath
The lyrics of “Feed Us Breath” use intense imagery to represent the vulnerability of existence. The references to birth, breath, struggle, and survival are not simply about one momentâthey represent the challenges humans face throughout life.
The phrase “a fetus at the brink of life” becomes a powerful symbol of being caught between existence and purpose. It represents the feeling of fighting to survive while searching for answers about why we are here.
The Struggle Between Survival and Purpose
Throughout the song, the listener is taken through themes of:
The fear and uncertainty of entering the world
The struggle to break free from circumstances beyond our control
The pain and confusion that can accompany life
The search for peace, meaning, and understanding
The lyrics ask a question many people have wrestled with:
Are we truly living, or are we simply surviving?
Time, Choices, and the Human Experience
The chorus reflects on the limited nature of time and the importance of what we do with it.
Life gives us the ability to see, hear, feel, and experienceâbut it also gives us pain, loss, and difficult choices. The song challenges listeners to examine their own journey and the meaning they create along the way.
Experience the Full Song
“Feed Us Breath” by Brent Calhoun is more than a songâit is an emotional and philosophical exploration of existence.

The Monsoon Arrives: First Real Rain Hits the New Mexico Desert
After months of extreme heat, dry conditions, and the relentless New Mexico desert sun, the skies have finally opened. The first real rain of the year has arrived at Plateau Hame De Colquhoun, marking the beginning of monsoon season on the mesa.
For those living off-grid, rain is more than just weatherâit is a moment of change. The sound of rain hitting the desert, the smell of wet earth, and the transformation of the landscape remind us how powerful and important every storm can be.
This is the beginning of our monsoon journey as we document the storms, the calm between weather systems, and the way the desert comes alive after rainfall.
The First Monsoon Storm of the Year
The first major storm of the season arrived with powerful energy. Dark clouds rolled across the New Mexico desert, winds moved through the mesa, and much-needed rain began falling across the land.
After weeks of intense summer heat, the cooler air and rainfall brought a welcome change. The desert, which can appear quiet and still during dry periods, begins to transform when the monsoon arrives.
During monsoon season, we experience:
Dramatic desert storm clouds
Powerful rain and changing weather patterns
Cooler temperatures after extreme heat
New life returning to the landscape
The challenges and rewards of off-grid living
At Plateau Hame De Colquhoun, every storm becomes part of the story of living with the land.
Watch the First Monsoon Storm
Experience the arrival of the first real rain of the year as the New Mexico monsoon begins.

A Break Between Storms: The Calm Before the Next Wave
After the first storm moved through, we entered a brief break between storms.
The desert became quiet again, but the skies showed signs that more weather was on the way. These moments between storms are some of the most beautiful parts of desert livingâthe cooler air, the changing clouds, and the anticipation of the next rainfall.
Monsoon season in New Mexico is unpredictable. One moment the desert can be dry and still, and the next it can be filled with thunder, wind, and rain.
This constant change is what makes desert life so unique.
Watch the Break Between Storms
Join us during a peaceful moment between storms as we watch monsoon season continue across the New Mexico desert.
Living Off-Grid During Monsoon Season
Off-grid living means being connected to the environment around us. Weather affects our daily routines, solar power, outdoor projects, animals, and life on the mesa.
Rain brings challenges, but it also brings appreciation.
Every storm reminds us why we chose this lifestyle:
To experience nature firsthand
To protect and preserve the land
To build a community connected to the desert
To appreciate the simple moments that many people never see

Exploring off-grid land often means witnessing raw, unscripted moments of nature. While observing free range cattle, a dark shape on the ground initially raised concernâpotentially a calf in distress.
In environments like Ka-Hoon Campground & Event Center, experiences like this are part of the reality of off grid livingâwhere human presence blends with natural ecosystems rather than controlling them.
đ Observing Before Acting
Approaching carefully revealed a calm but protective herd. The mother cow remained alert, signaling the need to stop and observe instead of intervene.
Observations included:
The herd maintained calm awareness
Protective maternal behavior was present
Minimal movement near the calves
Moments later, the situation clarifiedâtwo healthy newborn calves resting close to their mother, exactly as nature intended.
â ïž Why Respecting Distance Matters
In off-grid and rural environments, understanding animal behavior is essential.
Best practices for safety and respect:
Maintain a safe distance from livestock
Avoid sudden movements or direct approach
Recognize protective instincts as natural behavior
Allow nature to resolve situations independently
This moment reinforced a core principle of ranch life and desert livingânot everything requires human intervention.
đ The Reality of Off-Grid Living
Life at Ka-Hoon Campground & Event Center offers authentic experiences shaped by nature.
This includes:
Direct interaction with natural ecosystems
Real-time learning through observation
Respect for wildlife and livestock balance
đ„ Watch the Full Experience
đ” Final Thought
True awareness comes from knowing when to step forwardâand when to step back.
