To go with yesterday’s post, I thought I would share  one video of our homestead when we first arrived here.

As you can see many things have changed since moving here in October of 2020. At the point of the video there were only 2 of us living full time this far out on the mesa.  

I can’t say it’s been easy, but I also can’t say I dislike it. I have done so many things I never thought I’d do.

My Dad made sure I understood how much damage a gun can do. I was fearful of guns and wouldn’t touch one. But since living here, I had to learn to handle guns. Before moving here I wouldn’t kill another living thing (I’m not against it, just wouldn’t do it and had Brent handle it). I’ve had to learn about solar, composting and so many other things.

Please enjoy the video, if you’d like to learn more feel free to visit our website, post comments or contact us.

I got a memory of fixing a trailer and thought I share a little of our story.

In January of 2020 we purchased our little piece of land in New Mexico that we now call Plateau Hame De Colquhoun !  Photo 1 and 2 had been our 3rd and final visit to the land before heading back to Minnesota. During this visit our friend who we had been helping out had given us a paver to place a marker, which we did. We wrote Colquhoun on the brick and left it at the center of the property (where the flag pole is now).

While here in New Mexico we found a 1992 Lazy Daze Class C RV, that we had purchased to live in and haul all our stuff back once we were ready to make the move.

In Minnesota we had lived in a 2500 square foot 1880 Victorian and part time in a 8×16 fish house (we fixed up and converted into a Tiny House) that is located on an environmental center, we site managed. Until 2018 when the 4 of us, 2 dogs and a cat moved full time into the Tiny House.

Summer of 2020 due to Covid the center had closed down, which meant we only had to maintain the grounds. This gave us time to get ready for our move to New Mexico.
We found a cheap 20ft enclosed trailer that we used to haul our stuff. But there was a reason this trailer was cheap, part of the roof had been ripped off, floor supports were rusted through, and no wheel wells .

We never thought the trailer was going to get finished at every turn we’d fine more wrong with it. But we did it and after selling most of our items we had in storage, we began our new adventure of living here in New Mexico on our beautiful piece of land.

It’s sunny and raining out today. Not much going on here today, this morning Anne had school and I had a Drs appointment. I am now working on making more sage bundles. Sometimes I think about going with regular size smudge sticks, as it’d be a little easier. But everyone loves the mini sage sticks. So I will continue with what I am doing. We will be offering the sage sticks in the Dusty Nail General Store for $1.00 each, or as Brent will say 5 for $5.00 lol.

Only 10 more days until the camping and Movie Night ! The Movie is free, camping and VIP parking is available. This month’s movie will be Avatar 2! Check out our website for more information.

July 15th will be Renfeild with Nicholas Cage

We are looking for ideas for August and September movies. If you have anything in mind let us know!

Hope everyone week is going well, I have been busy rolling sage sticks. When we lived in Minnesota Brent and I would spend a weekend every fall harvesting wild sage dry it and then create mini sage sticks. While visiting Minnesota last fall I had harvested some sage that I am now bundling.

Everyone that comes out and camps here at Plateau Hame De Colquhoun gets a welcome packet that includes a mini sage stick that we harvest and bundle ourselves.

The first 5 people to pre-register for the June 17 camping and Movie Night will get a free gift bag that will include one of our mini sage sticks, along with some other goodies from the Dusty Nail General Store .
