Take a break to clean

May 23, 2023May 24, 2023 Art Of Tiny Living

Today we are taking a break from outside work and doing so much needed cleaning in the RV. With everything the last couple weeks we put cleaning on the wayside. It looks cluttered from boxes and other items we needed for the Nomad Gathering in the Desert and other items we haven’t taken time to put away.

The next event here at Plateau Hame De Colquhoun is June 17 Camping and Movie Avatar 2

We will be doing the camping and movies once a month. Check the website and our Facebook page for updates.

We are working on a music event soon. We also have the West Mesa Haunted Hay Ride coming in October this year it’ll be a 2 night event!

Getting ready for the Nomad Gathering in the Desert

May 16, 2023 Art Of Tiny Living

Mowing and getting ready for the Nomad Gathering in the Desert in 3 days!! We ended up push mowing as the rider has a flat tire and needs to go into the tire shop to get fixed. It is now fixed and we are hopeful on mowing the rest with the rider and using the push for the trim.

If you plan to purchase your registration when you arrive park in the parking lot and walk up to the Dusty Nail General Store to register. We will direct you from there on where to park. If you are pre-registered we will send you an email with your designated campsite, park first then come to the store to sign in and get your arm band. You can still register through the website.

Road update

The road still has not been graded. The wind has caused about a 1/2 mile of sandy washboard area. Take your time through that area, rest of the road is normal washboard and dips, easily passable for all vehicles.
