First Night in the Big Country!

Saturday, January 30th, 2016

Today we slept late. Until almost 9! Very unusual for Tony, he's usually awake before 7. But we were really wiped out from the exciting day yesterday. We slept fairly well, considering we were in a new rig. The furnace has that "funny" new smell, and of course there are new sounds and such!

Last night we left the rig hooked to the truck since we were too tired to mess with it. We did, however, put the 6 Level-Up jacks down and level manually.

We finally got moving around 10:30, and did some moving of various boxes and baskets of last minute grab and go from the Mammoth. It was crazy, I should have taken a pic but we both forgot. The living room had stuff on every couch, down the middle of the living room, the bed was covered, and the dinette was, too. 

We had to uncover the bed last night of course, so all that stuff was also in the living room. 

We moved our queen sleep number bed over to the new rig, and left the king mattress at the dealer. We decided we weren't ready to invest in a new king mattress just yet, so we will cut down the base to fit. Tony has already lined this up.

Anyway, we started trying to organize the kitchen and get everything a "home" for now. We also hooked up water and sewer, and tried some of the various features we hadn't had time to play with at the dealer. 

We'd invited our folks to come out to Bluebonnet Ridge and see the rig, so we worked to get it more presentable. Tony's folks came by in the afternoon, and mine came by for supper and both gave me something in celebration of my birthday. They all liked the rig very much.

After my folks left, we pretty much collapsed again for the evening. We head home to Eastland County tomorrow. We've very happy with our new home so far!
