This past week has been tough for us with a lot of personal things happening. We don’t usually share much, but this has been particularly stressful, filled with drama and a lot of questioning.
One thing that keeps standing out is how much some people lack **respect**. A few days ago, a neighbor came over, and while we were outside, we saw a motorcyclist going down Powerline Rd, which is closed off and impassable. He reached the end, turned around, and instead of heading back the proper way, he cut right through our property, ignoring “No Trespassing” signs and us standing there.
When we shouted that he was on private property, he flipped us off and continued to the end of our driveway. He then turned back toward us, but when Brent and our neighbor started walking down the driveway, the motorcyclist finally turned and left.
Now, if he had simply stopped and said he was lost or thought it was a road, we would have gladly told him to go ahead. But he chose to be disrespectful, and for what? Respect really does go a long way, and I just don’t understand why it’s so hard for some people to show it.

Rehearsing in the studio with wonderful campers visiting from Switzerland and celebrating retirement travel!
Yesterday was a busy day in the studio as we spent most of it rehearsing. In between, we had the pleasure of hosting a couple of wonderful campers. It’s always enjoyable giving tours and visiting with guests who come from all walks of life. One of our campers was a father and son who had just embarked on a two-week vacation to tour the USA, all the way from Switzerland! We were honored to be their first stop on such a special journey. Another camper had just retired from truck driving and is now planning to enjoy all the sights and experiences they had missed while on the road. We wish both of them the best on their travels!
If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat with a welcoming community, be sure to visit us at **Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center**.

Halloween Hootenanny & Dance of the Dead: Live Performances by Advocatus Diaboli & Grim Leafer Band!
Yesterday, we took the day off and relaxed by watching football with our neighbors. After dropping Anne off at work, we enjoyed some downtime, caught a few games, and did a few small tasks around the house. It was a nice break, especially after the excitement of Saturday’s Music in the Desert Talent Show and Karaoke.
This week is going to be busy with appointments and Anne’s work schedule. We also have to take care of a few things, like putting new brakes on the car. Most importantly, we’ll be spending a lot of time rehearsing, as ** Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band ** has some upcoming shows! We’ve got a few new songs to introduce, and we’re fine-tuning all the new conversions we’ve made. During Saturday’s show, we found an error in one of the songs, but it ended up being a funny moment. We’ll definitely be fixing that one—but we might just keep the mixed-up version for laughs!
**Upcoming Performances for Advocatus Diaboli **:
– **Saturday**: Halloween Hootenanny at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center
– **November 1st**: Halloween Dance of the Dead at Red Gorilla Studios

Rescue Puppy Vibria’s First Week at KaHoon Campground | Life in the New Mexico Desert
**Welcoming Vibria: Our Tiny New Family Member**
A week ago, we took a trip to Roswell to pick up a tiny puppy that had been dumped on Cahoon Street. It’s easy to forget just how much work a puppy can be—adorable, lovable, but still full of energy and mischief. We’re unsure of her exact age or breed, but judging by her teeth (she still has all her milk teeth), we estimate she’s at least 8 weeks old. She weighs about 1.5 pounds, so we suspect she’s a small breed, possibly a Chihuahua, Miniature Pinscher, or a mix of both. Regardless, we’ve embraced her fully and are adapting to her tiny size and big personality.
It’s a bit strange having such a small dog. Her bladder is delicate, and her stubbornness adds to the challenge of teaching her commands like “No.” She’s a lot like a two-year-old in that regard!
Vibria recently got her first set of puppy shots and was dewormed. She’s starting to settle in and show us her playful, spirited personality. She’s frisky, friendly, and definitely has some attitude. She’s also very clever—she already knows how to sneak through the fence and head to the Greenroom, where she’s found a way to steal food from the cats!
Her relationship with Dreugan, our other dog, is slowly growing. At first, Dreugan wasn’t sure what to make of her and kept his distance. But now, he’s warming up to her, even letting her chew on his feet a few times. We’re giving him the space he needs, so it’s up to him if he wants to interact with her.
We’re excited to see how Vibria grows and what kind of dog she’ll turn out to be. Without knowing her breed, we have no idea how big she’ll get—anywhere from 10 to 25 pounds, maybe more if she surprises us!
What do you think? How big do you think Vibria will grow? Let us know your guesses!

Music in the Desert Talent Show & Karaoke – Camp, Sing, and Enjoy a Night of Fun in the Desert!
I’ve been down with some stomach issues the last couple of days. It’s slowly getting better, but I haven’t felt up to doing much.
This weekend, we’re gearing up for the Music in the Desert Talent Show and Karaoke, which should be a great time for everyone.
Before this, we were busy working in the studio, rewriting and organizing songs for the Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band show. We’ve made some good progress, but there’s still more to do. The work we’re putting in will make it much easier to set up and run the music during the performance.
We also had a nice week of campers coming in and even sold some registrations for the Halloween Hootenanny! It’s going to be 4 days of fun and activities in the New Mexico desert, with music, Creepy Crawl campsite-to-campsite trick-or-treating, and more.
