Morning Sounds after a night of rains while living offgrid in the New Mexico desert.
We’ve had a few cloudy and windy days, but yesterday, we finally got a break, and it cleared up long enough to burn the tumbleweeds that were caught on the dog fence. We’re hoping that today brings some sunshine to charge the solar panels. Have a great day!

Wind and sand storm
Sand, wind storm while living offgrid in the New Mexico desert.
Spring is the season for wind and sandstorms. This year is no different.

Took night off to see Amigo The devil concert
Last night we took a break and went watched one of our favorite bands Amigo The Devil ! We would love to have Amigo come play here at Ka-Hoon Plateau Hame De Colquhoun ! Wouldn’t it be cool to see him play under the New Mexico skies, with mountains in background and the openness of the desert?! I think it would be..
I wasn’t able to get a recording of Flogging Molly as we ended up moving towards the back, we ran to the bathroom due to the crowd. (I don’thandle being crowded), and sadly I couldn’t see anything

Crochet projects
A while back, @Advocatus Diaboli & The GLƁ asked me to make some items for his merch table. I had never crocheted anything other than blankets before, but Brent and AD (Advocatus) encouraged me to try. I succeeded and made the items AD asked for, as well as some for the Dusty Nail General Store. What do you think?

Projects here at Plateau Hame De Colquhoun
We got the Dusty Nail build pretty much finished. Now we start cleaning and setting up the inside.
We are excited to have the new stage and Dusty Nail General Store ready for the April Fool’s Open Mic !
I have so many ideas on how I want to decorate the inside, I’m not sure I will be able to accomplish my ideas by the next event. I will probably put off these ideas until after the Open Mic.
The next projects
First will be a shower. We have everything to build the shower. We will be looking for a good 275+ gallon IBC tote, cheap, food grade with good tread on the spout. If you know of one please contact us
We are planning on adding another road, 2nd parking area (can be used for parking or campsites) and a few more campsites.
We also plan on moving our private residence area back. This will give more campsites. Give us and the dogs more privacy while having events and or campers.
But before we can move our spot back we have to build the 5k solar setup. This one will only be dedicated to the “Beast” class A. The big solar is for the Greenroom, Bluemoon, maybe shower, and sound/lights during events.
If you’d like to come visit and see what we are doing. We welcome you to attend one of our events. April Fool’s Open Mic on April 1st, Nomad Gathering in the Desert May 19 to 21, Haunted Hay ride in October, (more events coming soon)come camp, or contact us to come and visit a few hours.

We love that we are finally to point here at Plateau Hame De Colquhoun that we have moved onto the level of opening up for events.
So many projects we still need or want to complete. But we are slowly getting there!
We have a stage, first concert booked and selling limited tickets. Campers been steady, which we like a lot. The shower is one step closer to being finished.
Wonderful neighbors, we enjoyed hanging with them and watch the eclipse!

Lumber costs and projects
The days are warming up, there are so many projects we want to complete, but the cost of lumber has made us try to find cost effective alternatives which in turn is making the process of completing these projects slower.
We have had couple campers book through the new reservation platform on the website. So far have had good results with it.

Delayed yet again
Heat, and storms. Dealing with weather doesn’t give us much chance to complete the projects we are wanting to complete. Today we were supposed to pickup an armoire and couple end tables, we’ll have to see what these clouds do before we can get them.
