**Music in the Desert: Off-Grid Living, Solar Life & The Magic of Advocatus Diaboli**
Life in the New Mexico desert has a rhythm all its own—quiet mornings, wide-open skies, and the hum of solar power fueling every creation at Plateau Hame de Colquhoun. Out here, everything is built with intention: the music, the campground, the shows, and even the way we live day-to-day.
At the heart of it all is **Advocatus Diaboli**, host of **Music in the Desert**, bringing original music, paranormal stories, humor, and the gritty spirit of off-grid life straight to TikTok and YouTube. What started as a desert dream has become a growing community—a place where people come together for live music, talent shows, off-grid chats, and the unique energy only this land can inspire.
Each performance blends solar-powered creativity, storytelling, and the charm of our four-legged crew: Dreugan, Vibria, and Persephone. They’ve become icons of the desert, keeping watch during late-night rehearsals, guarding the studio, and occasionally demanding snacks mid-show. Their personalities shine through everything we create—especially when they get the spotlight in video content.
Living off-grid isn’t always easy, but it’s real. It takes grit, humor, and the willingness to think differently when the world tries to box you in. From windstorms to equipment malfunctions to the battles we fight simply for being different—this land teaches resilience. And through it all, the music never stops.
Music in the Desert isn’t just a livestream—it’s connection. It’s storytelling. It’s the desert singing back. Whether we’re discussing solar setups, paranormal history, desert survival, or just sharing laughs, each livestream brings our community closer. And every show is powered entirely by the sun—proof of what’s possible with passion and solar grit.
Join us for the journey, the sound, the sunsets, the dogs, and the magic that only happens out here at **Ka-Hoon Campground & Event Center**. This is creativity unfiltered, off-grid living unapologetically, and music that carries across the open desert night.

Walking the Edge of the Mesa! 🌄 Offgrid Views of the Rio Grande Valley!
Walking the Edge of the Mesa – Offgrid Talk with Rio Grande Valley Views**
This morning’s **Offgrid Talk** took a whole new turn as I walked it right to the edge—literally. Living on top of the mesa at **Plateau Hame de Colquhoun** gives us some of the most breathtaking views in New Mexico, but today the Rio Grande Valley looked especially magical.
Out here, the desert air feels different. The wide-open sky, the crisp silence, and the endless stretch of the **New Mexico desert** bring a sense of grounding that you just can’t find anywhere else. As I hiked along the ridge, I kept thinking about how many people dream of living offgrid but never get to witness moments like this—moments where nature does all the talking.
Our offgrid life isn’t always easy, but mornings like this remind me why we chose the mesa. Whether we’re preparing for upcoming events at **Ka-Hoon Campground & Event Center**, working with **Colquhoun Entertainment**, or filming our **Offgrid Talk** episodes, this land always finds a way to inspire us.
From the top of the ridge, I could see the Rio Grande Valley stretching out far beyond the desert floor, a reminder of why so many people feel drawn to this place. The calm. The quiet. The freedom. It’s everything offgrid living is supposed to be.
If you’ve been following our Offgrid Talk series, expect more behind-the-scenes moments, desert adventures, paranormal notes from the West Mesa, and daily life updates right here from Plateau Hame de Colquhoun—where the sky is wide, the nights are alive, and the mesa always has something to say.

I Didn’t Understand Why He Left… Until Years Later. My Thanksgiving Confession.
The Thanksgiving Thank-You I Never Got to Give — And Still Carry With Me**
**Plateau Hame de Colquhoun • Ka-Hoon Campground & Event Center • Colquhoun Entertainment**
Thanksgiving is the season for giving thanks… but sometimes the things we’re most thankful for are also the ones we look back on with a little regret.
This week, as I walked across the quiet desert at **Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center**, something heavy but heartfelt came to mind — a thank-you I never got to give.
When I was a young, naïve 21-year-old in college in Arkansas, I met someone who changed my world for a little while.
His name was **Billy**.
Billy quickly became my best friend.
We watched movies, hung out between classes, took spontaneous adventures — even spent Spring Break exploring Mississippi together. He was kind, funny, patient, and one of the first people who made me feel truly understood.
But I was young. And honestly? I didn’t know what I didn’t know.
Billy had told me he cared about me, but I didn’t recognize the hints. I saw him as my best friend — nothing more, nothing less. My parents warned me, “You can’t change him,” and I didn’t understand, because I loved him exactly as he was. I wasn’t trying to change anything. I just didn’t understand the depth of what he felt for me at the time.
Eventually, life moved on. I met someone, got married, and that’s when Billy told me he couldn’t stay in my life anymore.
He said it felt *awkward*.
I didn’t understand then why my best friend couldn’t stay my best friend.
But years later — after growing up, after life knocked me around a bit, after I learned how complicated hearts can be — I finally understood. And that realization stayed with me.
I’ve tried searching for him over the years, off and on, but without remembering his last name, it’s been next to impossible.
So this Thanksgiving, I’m putting this out into the world:
**Billy, if you’re out there, I’m sorry.**
I truly had no idea what you were trying to tell me back then.
I treasure the friendship we had, and I hope your life turned out full of the happiness you deserved.
And if you ever read this — I’d still love to reconnect, even just to say thank you.
Sometimes the people who help shape us never get to hear the impact they left behind.
This year, that’s my Thanksgiving reflection — gratitude for someone from long ago, and a hope that maybe this message finds its way home.

Why We REALLY Celebrate Turkey Day — And It’s Not the Story You Learned in School 🦃✨
Happy Turkey Day From Plateau Hame de Colquhoun: Thankful for Today, Building a Better Tomorrow**
Here at **Plateau Hame de Colquhoun**, also known as **Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center** and **Colquhoun Entertainment**, we celebrate **Turkey Day** for reasons far different from the stories many of us were told growing up.
We don’t celebrate because of the *Christopher Columbus myth* — the version that was polished, rewritten, and stripped of truth.
We celebrate to honor something real:
**Gratitude. Community. Growth. And the responsibility we all share to help build a better tomorrow.**
We can’t rewrite history,
we can’t undo the harm that was done,
but we *can* choose what we stand for today.
Here on the Plateau, Turkey Day is about:
✨ Giving thanks for the good in our lives
✨ Appreciating the people who walk beside us
✨ Opening our doors to neighbors, travelers, and friends
✨ Learning from the past so we don’t repeat it
✨ Creating community, kindness, and connection
Whether you’re celebrating with family, friends, your campground crew, or your off-grid desert tribe, we want to wish you a warm, joyful, and peaceful day.
**Happy Turkey Day from all of us at Ka-Hoon Campground and Colquhoun Entertainment!**

The Greenroom Is Almost Clean… and We’re Hosting TWO Turkey Days! 😂🦃🔥
🦃 Prepping the Greenroom for Community Turkey Day: Organized… Ish**
Today at **Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center**, we tackled one of the biggest challenges of the holiday season:
**Cleaning the Greenroom.**
Did we get it spotless?
No.
Did we get it clean *enough* to survive Community Turkey Day?
Absolutely.
We’ll call it “organized chaos”—the official décor style of Thanksgiving week on the **Plateau Hame de Colquhoun**. A few things still need to be built, a few things need a proper home, and a few items are currently living in the “temporary-but-maybe-permanent” pile. But hey—progress is progress.
This year, we’re hosting not one, but **two Community Turkey Day celebrations**!
Why two?
Because not everyone’s schedule lands perfectly on Thursday, and we believe everyone deserves a seat at the table, a warm meal, and a place to laugh with friends.
We picked up a **22-pound turkey**, ready to feed an army (or at least a hungry desert community). And the star of today’s prep?
The **Bean Cake**—yes, *that* Bean Cake—baked with love, chaos, and lots of encouragement during our morning TikTok livestream. Thank you to everyone who stirred, voted, commented, and laughed along with us. You are part of this tradition now.
As we roll into tomorrow and Friday, we’re excited, grateful, and only mildly exhausted. Community is what makes this place feel like home, and we can’t wait to share two days of food, stories, and laughter with all of you.
Happy almost-Turkey-Day from the desert!

Dog Sits ON His Sister… and Her Face Says EVERYTHING 😂🐾
**🐾 When Your Couch Turns Into a Canine Circus: Dreugan & Persephone’s Comedy Show**
Here at **Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center**, we see plenty of wild things out in the New Mexico desert—
but nothing, *nothing*, compares to the chaos that happens on our couch.
This week’s episode of **“Why Are the Dogs Like This?”** stars:
✨ **Dreugan**, professional troublemaker and self-appointed king of higher ground
and
✨ **Persephone**, long-suffering little sister with the patience of a saint
We captured not one, but *two* perfect photos of Dreugan perched directly on top of Persephone… on the couch… as if this is a normal household arrangement.
Persephone’s face says:
“I didn’t agree to this.”
Dreugan’s face says:
“I have achieved dominance. Bring snacks.”
If sibling rivalry had a mascot, it would be these two.
And honestly?
Out here on the **Plateau Hame de Colquhoun**, sometimes you just need a laugh, a deep breath, and a reminder that even the dogs are doing their best to stay warm, stay comfy, and stay dramatic.
If your Thanksgiving week is already chaotic—just remember:
At least nobody is sitting **on top of you**…
Hopefully.
Life is wild.
Dogs are ridiculous.
And we wouldn’t trade these desert moments for anything.

We Took a Camper to the Edge of the Llano del Albuquerque… The Sunset Left Us Speechless 🌄🔥
Sunset at the Southern Point of the Llano del Albuquerque: A Camper’s Perfect Evening**
Last night, we took one of our campers on a little off-grid adventure—straight to the **most southern point of the Llano del Albuquerque** to watch the sunset. Out here, sunsets don’t just happen… they *perform*.
As the sky shifted from gold to fire-orange to soft desert pink, we were reminded why moments like these are the heart of what we do at **Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center**. Sometimes the best part of camping isn’t the campsite at all—it’s the connections, the stories, and the chance to share the kind of beauty you can’t find in a city skyline.
Our camper stood there in awe, and honestly? So did we. The Llano del Albuquerque stretched out like a painted canvas, the desert quiet enough to hear the world breathe.
Whether you’re here for stargazing, music nights, or peaceful desert sunsets, we love getting to show visitors the magic tucked into every corner of **Plateau Hame de Colquhoun**. And that southern point sunset? Definitely one of those magical places.
Here’s to more views, more adventures, and more sunsets shared with our incredible campers.
