Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band update

Good Thursday morning! I had to check to make sure it really was Thursday. Why is it so hard to get projects started let alone finished? We have been busy with so many other things that we haven’t had a chance to start the projects we want to get done.

But it’ll all get done, maybe a little slower than what we had hoped for..

It’s nice have others here, we are really enjoying listening to Advocatus Diaboli rehearsal, helping them out. I can now let you in.. it’s official Advocatus has bought themselves a little place adjoining our place.

So they are here to stay! A few flew back to pack up their belongings, and should be heading back by the end of Dec.

It feels good to have people you’ve only seen in concert to become such close friends. We hope they do good things here in New Mexico.

If you’d like to see Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band they will be playing here at Plateau Hame De Colquhoun and soon coming to a bar, club, event near you!!

Work day at Plateau Hame De Colquhoun

We are so greatful that Advocatus Diaboli treated us and the neighbor in the apportuntity in seeing the Metalachi: The World’s First and Only Heavy Metal Mariachi Band in Sante Fe. If you haven’t heard or seen them, I highly recommend it!

Since we took yesterday off, today we had to get some work done here at Plateau Hame De Colquhoun .

We cleaned up around the wood pile, we had some campers leave us some kindling that had been boxed up, but the boxed fell apart, leaving a mess.

While Brent was cleaning and burning, I worked on raking around the firepit, the pricklypear garden, walking sticks, yucca and the stump. We just started raking the yucca, making a hole around them to get rid of weeds and to capture more water. I haven’t finished them all yet, but slowly getting them.

White Christmas song song by The Butcher lyrics written by Advocatus Diaboli

It’s already Monday,  hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! We spent the weekend helping Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band get ready for some upcoming shows.

I have never been involved in setting up a show, watching Advocatus Diaboli and Brent Colquhoun work together and seeing g the talent, and seeing what they can achieve together is just so exciting! I look forward to seeing the next show, no matter where it’s played!!

Advocatus and Brent are working on a venue change (so it’s not weather dependent) for the Dec show. We will post more information once we know more! 

Please enjoy this short video song by “The butcher, lyrics written by Advocatus Diaboli”

New thinking, same life

Car update:

We called the bodyshop today as we had originally been told the car would be finished today. We found out they haven’t started working on it as they are waiting on the parts they ordered to come on. The body shop gave us an estimated time as aweek and half. Body shop stated the repairs are extensive we were told they were minimal, so idk what to think about it. Just will be happy to get our car back in the shape we left it.

I hadn’t realized just how much this all effected us until a couple days ago. When we go to Planet Fitness and shower usually Brent is finished first, he goes outside and waits for Anne and I.

Anne and I were walking out talking (I can’t remember about what). We noticed the drivers door was open on the rental, but we didn’t see Brent. Both of us suddenly quit talking. I had same feeling I had when noticed the car was gone, but more intense. It felt like it took us forever to get to the car, upon arrival we didn’t see him, my thoughts went right to the worse that he was taken.

But we rounded to the back of the car and there he stood smoking a cigarette in the shade of the car. Anne and I both let out a big breath of relief.

New thinking, same life.

Heater time?

Think it’s time to get out the heaters! This morning at 30 degrees outside, 40 inside it would had been nice to run the chill out. We don’t run heaters while we sleep, we usually stay warm in bed, no reason to waste propane (we are cheap). When it’s cold we run the heater in the evenings until we go to bed, and turn them on for few hours in the morning.

This year we don’t have Amigo crate to set the heater on, which means we need to figure out another location for it.

Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band are staying in the Greenroom which isn’t insulated nor heated..This morning they came in for coffee, hung out a few before heading back out, said the expression of “being cold as Hell” was basically a myth and didn’t even mention anything further about it.

So maybe it’s just me…

A Visitor in Juniper

We have a visitor. As many know that most of this area has free ranged cattle. They are taken care of by who we call the Rancher (we know his name). They like to visit us, knock over the solar lights, ate the flowers off our yucca. We don’t mind them to much, but we do chase them out of the yard, campsites…

But this old (idk if he’s old or not) guy whenever we see him he always seems to be alone. So when he comes and visits we leave him alone.

He seems to like the Juniper campsite, our only tree.

I know he’s not ours, but we’d like your help in giving him a name, we have been calling him the black bull..
