4th of July Festivities at Ka-Hoon Campground
Yesterday, we hosted a fantastic community BBQ to celebrate the 4th of July. After enjoying some delicious food, we headed to the northern edge of the Mesa to catch a spectacular view of the fireworks. From this vantage point, we could see fireworks being launched in Los Lunas and Albuquerque, as well as smaller displays in Belen and Bosque.
Belen had already held their fireworks show last Saturday, so the crowd was smaller than last year, which made for a more relaxed experience. As we returned home, we were treated to a stunning natural light show as Mother Nature lit up the sky with her own fireworks over the Manzano Mountains.
Today, we’re gearing up for our 2-day 4th of July Celebration here at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center. We can’t wait to continue the festivities with all of you!
Stay tuned for more updates and join us for an unforgettable celebration!

Monsoon Adventures: Community Spirit in the New Mexico Desert
Navigating Monsoon Season in the New Mexico Desert
Living in the New Mexico desert has its unique challenges, especially during monsoon season. Today was a prime example as we had to head out for water, showers, and a few groceries, all while trying to beat the next wave of storms.
The muddy roads made the trip especially slow, but we knew waiting for more rain would make them even worse. As we made our way back home, we saw a cluster of police lights. Approaching the scene, we discovered a pickup had rolled into a ditch. Our hearts sank when we realized it was someone we knew, a member of our community. Fortunately, he wasn’t hurt, and we were able to give him a ride home.
This experience was a stark reminder of the difficulties we face living here, but also of the strong community spirit that helps us get through these challenges together.

Water Supply Challenges and Community Solutions at KaHoon Campground
### Water Supply Challenges and Solutions
We often get asked about how we manage our water supply. Here are some insights into our current options and challenges:
#### Bulk Water Hauling
We can haul bulk water using a 275-gallon IBC tote, which is the most cost-effective solution. We plan to rely on bulk water once we start building the shower facilities.
However, there are significant issues with hauling bulk water. The weight of the water combined with our rugged roads makes it tough on vehicles and trailers. The repair costs for our vehicles can outweigh the savings from hauling water ourselves. This challenge is one reason why we’ve paused our shower construction.
#### Community Solutions
We’re hoping that by banding together with the six households in our area, we can find a more sustainable solution. Ideally, we’d hire a delivery service that can cater to all of us. Unfortunately, our initial plan fell through when the suspension on our potential delivery person’s truck broke down.
#### Well Installation
The cost of drilling and maintaining a well isn’t feasible for us at this time. It’s a long-term goal, but for now, we need a more immediate solution.
#### Interim Measures
Until we figure out a reliable delivery method, either through a service or by organizing ourselves, we are using 5-gallon jugs filled at Twice the Ice. It’s not the most convenient method, but it gets us by.
We appreciate your understanding and support as we navigate these challenges. We’re committed to finding a better solution soon.

Unforgettable Night at Ka-Hoon: Drum Circle Magic Under Cloudy Skies!
**Reflecting on Last Night’s Drum Circle: A Night of Rhythm and Connection**
Last night’s drum circle at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center was a resounding success, filled with vibrant energy, rhythmic beats, and a sense of community that brought us all closer together. Despite many of us being novices, the experience was nothing short of magical.
**A Welcoming Gathering**
We were delighted to see a nice group of participants show up, all eager to take part in the drum circle. The atmosphere was electric with anticipation as we gathered around the bonfire, ready to make music under the stars.
**Finding Our Rhythm**
Even though many of us didn’t have prior experience with drumming, that didn’t deter our enthusiasm. The initial uncertainty quickly gave way to spontaneous creativity. With a mix of hand drums, shakers, and other percussion instruments, we started to find our collective rhythm. It was heartening to see everyone encouraging each other, sharing tips, and learning together.
**A Night of Connection**
As the night progressed, the beats became more synchronized, and we lost ourselves in the music. The drum circle turned into a powerful means of expression, where words were unnecessary, and the rhythm did all the talking. Laughter and smiles were abundant, and the sense of connection was palpable.
**Under the Starry Sky**
There’s something incredibly special about making music outdoors, under a blanket of stars. The natural beauty of the New Mexico desert added to the ambiance, making the evening even more unforgettable. The flickering bonfire, the rhythmic drumming, and the vast night sky created a perfect setting for a memorable experience.
**Looking Forward**
We left the drum circle feeling invigorated and looking forward to more such events. The drum circle not only allowed us to explore our musical sides but also fostered a sense of community and shared joy. Whether you’re a seasoned drummer or a complete beginner, we welcome you to join us next time. It’s an experience that promises not just music, but also camaraderie and fun.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and made the evening special. We can’t wait to drum with you again soon!
