[0:01]
so it's been nearly 100° outside all day
[0:05]
so I've been tinkering in here doing all
[0:06]
kinds of stuff and I'm just about
[0:08]
organized to the point where I'm ready
[0:10]
to finally give a tour of my home and I
[0:14]
thought I would start with what I'm
[0:16]
working on now because this stuff will
[0:18]
be hidden behind my drawers when I do
[0:22]
the rest of the tour which maybe I'll do
[0:23]
tomorrow or something so this is my
[0:26]
office area now I need my dehumid fire
[0:30]
somewhere centrally located cuz even in
[0:32]
the Pacific
[0:33]
Northwest um it's going to be raining
[0:35]
all winter so that's that's very
[0:38]
important my solar is completely tied
[0:41]
down it's not going to go anywhere this
[0:43]
is my desk now these are all velcro down
[0:47]
not sure what I'm doing with my hard
[0:48]
drives yet so they're the cables for
[0:51]
them are just kind of messy over there
[0:53]
but that'll get fixed and this tells you
[0:56]
something about my old life 238 hours
[0:59]
playing Riz
[1:01]
two um that's coming from my
[1:04]
PlayStation this is a this are will
[1:08]
remain mainly open so I can access stuff
[1:10]
over here but this is everything this is
[1:13]
what I wanted to show you everything
[1:16]
runs from this plug this one plug and it
[1:19]
connects to this power
[1:21]
supply which has its own like battery
[1:24]
sorts I forget what they're called but
[1:25]
it's cyber
[1:27]
power and so when I'm hooked up to solar
[1:30]
all I have to do is take this and hook
[1:32]
it up to my solar over there and I'm
[1:34]
done everything is hooked
[1:37]
up so I've got my PlayStation and my PC
[1:41]
and my desktop hooked up to the same
[1:44]
monitor this particular monitor you can
[1:46]
see I've taped it down that keeps it
[1:48]
from going anywhere you know that I some
[1:50]
of you know that I broke my Alienware
[1:52]
monitor one day this has solved this has
[1:55]
prevented problems the only problem with
[1:57]
this one is the only way to access
[2:01]
the
[2:01]
menu is
[2:04]
from the back of it which is really not
[2:08]
convenient I haven't turned my my um
[2:11]
desktop on in a while so let's hoping
[2:14]
everything's going to be good as much as
[2:17]
I love um the color display of this
[2:19]
thing and the window and everything um
[2:22]
that's probably going to get hidden
[2:23]
behind these right here these
[2:26]
dressers um but it'll come out about
[2:28]
right here I think
[2:31]
um I do love my desktop I upgraded the
[2:34]
hell out of that thing so yep there we
[2:37]
go my mouse isn't hooked up
[2:41]
so um but yeah we're
[2:44]
good definitely need one of those cuz of
[2:47]
Bailey these are all velcro done I think
[2:50]
I said that that's basically it
[2:52]
nothing's going to go anywhere while I'm
[2:54]
driving and everything is just one plug
[2:58]
um it's kind of like I guess the weak
[3:01]
link of the system but you know all I
[3:04]
have to do if I'm hooked up to on my
[3:05]
camground I plug it in there if I'm
[3:07]
boondocking in the Pacific Northwest
[3:10]
which I will be all of the
[3:12]
time um just one plug into my solar and
[3:16]
just because I'm sure some of you will
[3:19]
wonder yes I know that you know it's
[3:20]
going to be winter in the Pacific
[3:22]
Northwest raining all the time cloudy
[3:24]
so's not going to work as well you know
[3:26]
this is this is all about me adapting I
[3:28]
want to learn these things I want to
[3:30]
know what kind of power will I be able
[3:31]
to generate what will I be able to use
[3:33]
all of that is
[3:35]
important I am not approaching this like
[3:38]
an RV lifer would this is a different
[3:41]
thing and it always has been the other
[3:44]
thing I can show you is my cab area cuz
[3:46]
I've got that done this is Bailey's area
[3:48]
usually his carrier sitting there and he
[3:49]
can just be up on it we don't always
[3:51]
have the sun shade up so he can usually
[3:54]
look out the windows obviously his giant
[3:56]
litter box the bane of my
[3:58]
existence but today I worked on
[4:00]
everything in here this is something my
[4:02]
mom once gave me um it's got very
[4:05]
special meaning to me um I forget what
[4:08]
they're called of but it's a draff and
[4:10]
an elephant like statue
[4:12]
thing and it's you know you can see it
[4:15]
it's there with um those picture strips
[4:19]
um command strips I've got my RV GPS
[4:22]
Garmin one and then I finally got this
[4:25]
hooked up properly um you know what hold
[4:27]
on let me get the keys all right meley
[4:31]
thinks we're going somewhere so he's
[4:32]
running off but I just want to show you
[4:34]
so I finally got this working I can
[4:36]
finally listen to music on it using
[4:39]
Bluetooth got my GPS up there like I
[4:42]
said rear picture this thing I finally
[4:46]
got it hooked up oh no this is falling
[4:48]
down I'm going to have to fix that oh
[4:51]
man it didn't tape up as
[4:54]
well um how to turn the volume down
[4:57]
right here see it it just did it aom
[4:59]
exactly how
[5:01]
cool um but this thing finally can act
[5:05]
like a rear prier
[5:06]
my um dash
[5:09]
cam I can get it to turn
[5:12]
on oh I got to turn everything on I
[5:15]
forgot this here Powers
[5:18]
everything so I've got this um 12vt Hub
[5:23]
which gets my Garing going gets my dash
[5:25]
cam going and my tire monitor my brake
[5:29]
system monitor for my Jeep but see
[5:32]
that's the rear that's the rear of my uh
[5:35]
my RV so when I'm driving down the road
[5:37]
I've got a much better view than this
[5:39]
thing shows me and the mirror over here
[5:42]
though you can't see it it actually it's
[5:43]
not vibrating anymore I taped that up
[5:45]
and that work and the concave mirror I
[5:48]
put on there has helped a lot on that
[5:49]
side so I feel like I've got really good
[5:51]
visibility of everything now I'm really
[5:54]
loving this so I'm really excited for
[5:57]
tomorrow tomorrow I had for my next
[6:00]
Campground and I feel like I am just
[6:02]
totally set up for it and this RV will
[6:04]
be done and ready to go like I'll have
[6:06]
it organized and everything will be
[6:09]
ready to go so I am very excited all
[6:14]
right so with those dressers here that's
[6:16]
what it looks like I still get a little
[6:18]
bit of a view of my beautiful
[6:20]
computer and that's got all my clothes
[6:23]
in it those do shift a little bit but I
[6:26]
want to keep those from I need to be be
[6:29]
able to pull those out occasionally so
[6:31]
I'm just going to leave that like
[6:33]
that next we pull this out step ladder
[6:37]
we come up here and this is my storage
[6:40]
area now a big storage Al Cove where the
[6:44]
slide roof meets the roof of the RV so
[6:47]
much space for
[6:48]
stuff it looks a little bit disorganized
[6:51]
but you know that's the project that I'm
[6:53]
still working on but nothing's falling
[6:55]
down everything's been um working up
[6:57]
great up there I think this space here I
[7:01]
can put my my chair there to keep it out
[7:03]
of the way because now that the slides
[7:05]
in all the time you know this thing gets
[7:07]
in the way
[7:08]
so um when I'm not using it I'm hoping
[7:11]
it'll fit up here I'll have to find
[7:14]
out not easily okay well it was just a
[7:19]
thought I'll figure something out I'm
[7:22]
always trying to adapt my space for me
[7:24]
well it works for me but see if it's
[7:26]
there it's pretty much in the way so I
[7:28]
got to figure something
[7:30]
I don't know that there's really that
[7:31]
much else to show you those were the
[7:33]
main things that I'm just I love my cab
[7:36]
area I think it's perfect now I love my
[7:38]
office area plus the dusk is pretty
[7:41]
clear to do other projects
[7:43]
on um I have a full tank of propane so I
[7:46]
can start cooking in here soon but I
[7:48]
also have my inion stove top which I'm I
[7:50]
haven't used that yet but feel like I'm
[7:53]
getting to the point where that's next
[7:54]
for me then if we just had try to keep
[7:57]
this whole area clear can see Bailey
[8:00]
down there now but that's where my bags
[8:02]
will go that's where like my hiking bag
[8:04]
and my my um shower bag and those kinds
[8:08]
of things and then I just got my bed
[8:09]
back here which is this is just a
[8:12]
perfect place for me I absolutely love
[8:15]
this I spend quite a lot of time here
[8:17]
with Bailey and you can see the other
[8:20]
dash cam in the rear Mir window
[8:23]
there this is just a perfect environment
[8:26]
for us this is I am living my dream I so
[8:31]
excited to get to the Pacific Northwest
[8:34]
I'm going to go down um somewhere near
[8:37]
Highway 101 just all the way up the
[8:39]
coast I actually show on this so I'm
[8:41]
just going to go up Oregon and
[8:43]
Washington coast
[8:44]
basically um
[8:47]
but maybe a little bit in um Inland from
[8:50]
there like some degree in Inland from
[8:53]
there because I'm going to want to park
[8:55]
my RV in the forest and I'll use my deep
[8:57]
to do the exploring
[8:59]
um while ballon doing I want to learn
[9:02]
that so that's that's next and you can
[9:05]
see from this map so I'm going to be I'm
[9:08]
in Kansas now and I'm going to go into
[9:10]
Nebraska in Wyoming I don't remember
[9:13]
from there I I tried to go into Mon I
[9:15]
had just really difficult time figuring
[9:17]
out a route here I think I go into Idaho
[9:20]
and then into Oregon somewhere around
[9:22]
here
[9:24]
um but it's going to be like some of
[9:26]
them are like 10hour drives I might even
[9:28]
just drive right through item I'm not
[9:29]
sure I don't remember why um it's
[9:32]
something
[9:33]
like I don't remember 1,800 miles still
[9:36]
I've gone 600 so far I've got 1,800 to
[9:40]
go it's awesome
