**Monday Before Thanksgiving: A Little Inspiration From Ladrón Peak**
It’s the Monday before Thanksgiving here at **Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center**, and as we look out toward the beautiful silhouette of **Ladrón Peak**, we’re taking a moment to breathe, smile, and laugh at ourselves—because if there’s one universal truth, it’s this:
**Nobody has their life together on the Monday before Thanksgiving. Not even the mountain.**
While some of us are trying to plan the perfect dinner, others are debating if pie for breakfast counts as “getting ahead.” And honestly? Ladrón Peak isn’t judging—it’s just standing there, doing its majestic thing, refusing to move on a Monday. A mood we can all relate to.
So take a breath, sip your coffee, and remember:
**You’ve got this.
Barely.
But still… you’ve got this.**
From all of us here at Plateau Hame de Colquhoun, we hope this week brings laughter, warmth, and maybe a nap or two before the turkey chaos begins.

He Was Told He May Never Sing Again… His Thanksgiving Comeback Will Leave You Speechless!
Giving Thanks: A Thanksgiving Message From Our Hearts at Ka-Hoon Campground
This year has tested us in ways we never expected. When Brent was injured and rushed into the ICU, spending a week undergoing emergency surgery, our world stopped. Doctors warned us that he might be headed to a rehab facility… and that he may never sing again.
But if there is one thing everyone knows about Brent, it’s that he doesn’t back down from a challenge. Just two days after surgery, he was singing again. While he still has obstacles ahead, his strength, determination, and passion have brought him nearly back to full singing power. His recovery has been nothing short of a blessing.
With Thanksgiving only days away, we want to take a moment to give our deepest gratitude to everyone who stood beside us through one of the hardest moments of our lives.
To our incredible neighbors who watched over our land, repaired our vehicles, made sure Anne got safely to work, and helped us with gas and food during the long hospital stay—thank you.
To my brother and his husband—thank you for helping our son fly down so he could be here with his dad when we needed him most.
To my parents and our neighbors—thank you for letting me fall apart when I needed to, for offering a shoulder to cry on, and for reminding me that we were not alone.
To our campers who stepped up to check other campers in, kept things running, and offered support—not just to us, but to one another—you are part of what makes Ka-Hoon truly special.
Although this chapter of our lives isn’t over and we still have challenges ahead, we want each and every one of you to know how much you mean to us. Your help, kindness, compassion, and love carried us through the darkest parts of this journey.
From our family, our crew, and everyone here at Ka-Hoon Campground and Plateau Hame de Colquhoun—
Thank you. Truly. Deeply. With all our hearts.

Dogs Take Over Music in the Desert?! Dreugan, Vibria & Crew Prepare for Tonight’s Show!
The Dogs Are Running the Show at Tonight’s Music in the Desert**
Tonight’s **Music in the Desert** livestream at **Ka-Hoon Campground** is already off to a hilarious start—because the dogs decided *they* are in charge. With **Dreugan** standing on top of the dog house like he’s the king of the desert, **Vibria** and **Persephone** battling it out in a tug-of-war showdown, and all four dogs lined up ready to catch a ball, it looks like the pre-show chaos might be just as exciting as the event itself.
As always, **Advocatus Diaboli** will be bringing the music, the desert will bring the magic, and the dogs… well… they’ll bring the comedy. Whether Dreugan is “guarding the perimeter,” Vibria is calling out moving leaves, or Persephone is training for her own dance floor debut, the buildup to tonight’s livestream has already become its own entertainment.
Join us for another unforgettable evening at **Plateau Hame De Colquhoun** during our **Music in the Desert** series, streaming live from our off-grid **Ka-Hoon Event Center**. With music, desert vibes, off-grid charm, and apparently a full cast of canine comedians, you never know what’s going to happen next.
Catch the livestream tonight at 5 PM MDT and be part of the desert’s most unpredictable off-grid music show.

Vibria Tries to Stop the Show?! Strangest Night Ever at Music in the Desert Livestream!
When Your Dog Becomes the Star of the Show at Music in the Desert**
Last night during the **Music in the Desert** livestream with **Advocatus Diaboli** here at **Ka-Hoon Campground** at **Plateau Hame De Colquhoun**, something completely unexpected happened—our usually calm pup **Vibria** decided she had *other plans* for the evening.
Normally, Vibria entertains herself with toys or sleeps quietly in her little hed under the table during the show. But not last night. She barked at me, pawed at everything, and made it very clear she wanted my attention *right now*.
Thinking she might need to go outside away from the leash, I took her to the RV where the other dogs were asleep. I let everyone out so they could stretch and use the bathroom, and assumed Vibria would want to stay with them.
Nope.
Instead, she grabbed her leash with her mouth like she was the one walking *me*, pulling me straight toward the pen… then immediately insisting on going back to the **music studio**. Even when we returned, she didn’t want to stay inside the studio, which is totally out of character for her.
Despite all the chaos, Vibria finished the show like a champ and even helped us break down equipment afterward. Once back at the RV, she happily played outside with the other dogs like nothing had ever happened.
Just another day of off-grid life, live music, and unpredictable animal adventures at **Ka-Hoon Event Center**.
If you missed last night’s livestream, don’t worry — more **Music in the Desert** shows are coming, and you never know which four-legged friend is going to steal the spotlight next!

They Drove Through Our Property at Night… AFTER Passing the No Trespassing Sign! (Caught on Camera)
**Respect in the Desert: What To Do If You Accidentally Drive Onto Private Property**
Living off-grid at **Plateau Hame De Colquhoun (Ka-Hoon Campground & Event Center)** means valuing safety, boundaries, and respect. Our desert home and campground are surrounded by open land, and it’s not unusual for people to get lost while exploring. But even in remote areas, **No Trespassing signs matter** — and respecting them keeps everyone safe.
Recently, a vehicle drove past our clearly marked **No Trespassing sign** and continued through our private road at Ka-Hoon Campground. Instead of stopping to speak with us, the driver sped off the moment they saw us. Incidents like this can be concerning, not only for our safety but for the peace of everyone who stays, camps, or participates in our events, including **Music in the Desert** livestream nights.
If you ever find yourself lost in the desert and accidentally turn onto someone’s land, here’s the right thing to do:
### ✔️ **Stop and talk to the property owner**
Most off-grid residents are friendly and understanding. If you made a wrong turn, just say so.
### ✔️ **Do not keep driving forward**
Continuing through private land raises safety concerns, especially late at night or when lights are shut off.
### ✔️ **Do not speed away**
Rushing off makes the situation appear suspicious, even if your intentions are harmless.
### ✔️ **Respect the signs**
When a sign says **No Trespassing**, it’s there for safety, liability, and privacy — not to be ignored.
At **Ka-Hoon Campground**, we welcome respectful visitors, campers, musicians, and community members for year-round events, Off-Grid Talks, Music in the Desert livestreams, karaoke nights, and our unique Halloween-inspired experiences. We value honesty, communication, and neighborly respect.
If you make a mistake, just stop.
Talk to us.
**Respect goes a long way in the desert.**

The Colquhoun Crest Revealed: The Ancient Scottish Symbol That Still Shapes Ka-Hoon Today!
***The History of Clan Colquhoun***
**How a Highland Legacy Lives On at Plateau Hame de Colquhoun**
The spirit of **Clan Colquhoun** goes back centuries, long before the creation of **Plateau Hame de Colquhoun**, the **Ka-Hoon Campground**, **Ka-Hoon Event Center**, or the creative world of **Colquhoun Entertainment**. The name itself carries a deep ancestral story rooted in Scotland’s rugged Highlands, where the Colquhoun family established their legacy along the western shores of **Loch Lomond**.
## **Origins of Clan Colquhoun**
Clan Colquhoun traces its lineage to the early medieval period, emerging as one of the influential Highland families of western Scotland. The name “Colquhoun” comes from the lands of **Colquhoun in Dunbartonshire**, granted during the reign of Alexander II in the 1200s. Over generations, the clan expanded its territories to include the lands of **Luss**, where the clan’s seat remains to this day.
The chiefs of Clan Colquhoun played key roles in Scotland’s history, participating in battles, land disputes, and alliances that shaped the region around Loch Lomond. Their tartan, crest, and motto—**“Si Je Puis” (If I Can)**—reflect determination, resilience, and honor.
## **The Clan and the Lands of Luss**
By the 14th century, the Colquhoun family had firmly established themselves at **Luss**, where they built the foundations of what would become a thriving clan community. These lands, rich with forests, lochs, and mountain passes, symbolized both the beauty and challenges of Highland life.
Even today, Luss is considered one of Scotland’s most picturesque towns, and the Colquhoun name remains deeply tied to the region’s heritage.
## **Clan Conflicts and Triumphs**
Like many Highland clans, the Colquhouns faced their share of conflict—none more legendary than the **Battle of Glen Fruin** in 1603, when they faced the MacGregors. Though the battle was devastating, the resilience of the Colquhoun people ensured their legacy survived and continued to grow.
Through centuries of political change, shifting borders, and royal influence, the clan remained steadfast and respected.
## **From Scotland to the Desert—A Modern Legacy Begins**
Today, the Colquhoun name lives on in a very different landscape—**the New Mexico desert**, where the spirit of the clan inspires the creation of **Plateau Hame de Colquhoun**, also known as **Ka-Hoon**.
Here, the essence of the clan’s values—community, honor, independence, resilience—are reflected in:
* **Ka-Hoon Campground & Event Center**
* **Music in the Desert**
* **JAFO Productions**
* **Melodie’s Oddities**
* **Dusty Nail General Store**
* **Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band**
* The off-grid lifestyle shared through **offgrid talk** and daily content
What once began in the misty woodlands of Loch Lomond now continues in the open skies and rugged mesas of the American Southwest.
## **Why the History Matters Today**
Understanding the roots of **Clan Colquhoun** brings depth to everything built at Plateau Hame de Colquhoun. It’s more than a name—it’s a heritage of perseverance, creativity, and community.
And just like their Scottish ancestors, the modern Colquhoun homestead stands strong in a wild landscape, welcoming travelers, storytellers, musicians, and adventurers.
## **Carrying the Legacy Forward**
Whether through nightly campfires, Music in the Desert performances, or off-grid living, the legacy of Clan Colquhoun continues to grow in new ways.
The land has changed—but the spirit hasn’t.

When the Dogs Take Over the Desert: A Behind-the-Scenes Look at Music in the Desert**
**Welcome to another fun moment here at our Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center — or as our furry security team calls it, “The Land of Desert Monsters.”**
During rehearsals for **Music in the Desert**, the dogs decided it was *their* turn to share their thoughts. From missing toys to “official snack investigations,” their commentary had everyone laughing.
As we prepared for tonight’s performance with **Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band**, our four-legged comedians kept a close eye on the action. Whether you’re following us on TikTok, YouTube, or Facebook, these behind-the-scenes moments show what life is really like here at **Plateau Hame de Colquhoun**, also known as **Ka-Hoon**.
Events like **Music in the Desert**, our Halloween-themed activities, and all the fun at the **Dusty Nail General Store**, **JAFO Productions**, **Melodie’s Oddities**, and everything under **Colquhoun Entertainment** make our off-grid world a unique desert experience.
Stay tuned for more updates, livestreams, and all the quirky moments that happen when you live off-grid with creative energy, animatronics, live music, and opinionated dogs.

I Tried Hanging a No Trespassing Sign… and It Went Hilariously Wrong! (Upside Down?!)
When Hanging a No Trespassing Sign Goes Hilariously Wrong
If you’ve ever lived off-grid in the desert, you already know that sometimes the land humbles you—and sometimes it just laughs at you. Today’s lesson? Even the simplest jobs can turn into a full-blown comedy sketch.
There we were at Plateau Hame de Colquhoun, proudly holding our brand-new **No Trespassing sign**, ready to protect **our little slice of off-grid heaven**. The plan was simple: hang the sign facing the right way so strangers, trespassers, or wandering motorcyclists wouldn’t mistake **our property** for a public trail.
Sounds easy, right?
Well… I managed to hang the sign **the wrong direction** *and* **upside down**. Yes. Both. At the same time.
So what exactly does an **upside-down No Trespassing sign** mean?
Around here, apparently it translates to:
➡️ *“Trespassers welcome. The owners are trying their best.”*
➡️ *“Please enter at your own confusion.”*
➡️ *“Warning: Gravity and common sense were not consulted.”*
In the desert, even the signs get disoriented.
But hey—when you live off-grid at Ka-Hoon Campground, you learn to laugh at yourself. And considering the drama we’ve seen around trespassing lately, maybe a little humor is exactly what the land needed today.
At least we got it fixed… after taking a picture for TikTok, because something this ridiculous **had** to be shared. You’re welcome.
If you’re keeping up with our daily Off-Grid Life adventures, stay tuned to TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, and Colquhoun Entertainment—because you never know what I will be hanging upside down next.
