How do you eat an elephant?

One bite at a time.

Getting settled in the new RV isn't a 2-day effort.  Each day we chop away at the stuff that was in the HitchHiker, deciding what stays (more like: what will fit) and what goes.  In the meantime, the daily stuff gets done, too.  We went out for a leisurely breakfast - my idea, since we have pretty much been on the run since we left Texas two weeks ago.

On the way back to the resort, we picked up some groceries and stuff we need for the new RV.  Then, those chores: Joan took care of laundry while I sanitized the water lines and holding tank in the Aspect.  Not a hard chore, but it takes time.  It also gave me the chance to check out all the water connections and operations (all good).  The other thing I was tasked with: figure out how to use the new infotainment center in the motorhome.  The Winnebago operator's manual is pretty thorough, just not much info on this option.  I had to dig around on the internet to find the company who makes it and download a "quick study" guide.

Pretty impressive unit: besides being the stereo, it has the Rand McNally RV specific GPS unit built in.  And SiriusXM satellite radio.  And the monitor for the backup and side-view cameras... pretty slick: turn on the blinker, and the screen changes from the GPS to a view down the side of the motorhome.  You enter your RV specifics (height, width, length, weight), and it warns you of low overhead or narrow roads ahead.  Somewhere around a gazillion POI (Points of Interest), many that are RV specific (RV parks, dump stations, big rig parking, etc, etc).  Once you know where to look for all the stuff this thing does, it is relatively easy.  I've not been one to want a built-in GPS in our other vehicles, because it is so easy to use the portable units; but this one is supposed to be easy to update.  And, it has all that other good stuff built in.  Now, we just need to go somewhere.  ;-)

We did get out on the scoots today - I think Joan was sensing that I was getting cranky due to two-wheel withdrawal.  We talked about a late lunch on the other side of the 101, but found something closer... then some wandering about on the scoots.  No destination, no schedule.

Back at the motorhome, Joan is now arranging kitchen drawers.  I came up with a possible shoe storage solution.  We have enough kitchen utensils to equip a big kitchen... and a reasonably small galley to put them in.  More decisions, more paring down.

Next goal: get the satellite TV set up.  The Aspect is wired for it, so that makes it less of a chore.

Yep, one bite at a time.  I can see all the pretty flooring in here, and the bed is clear of clutter.  I see a couple trips to the Salvation Army or Goodwill in our future... plenty of good stuff here that needs to find a new home.
