This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
I want to manually order them. I see the option for "Order by: Menu Order" but what menu is this going to look at?
Solution:
The "Menu Order" is a built-in feature of WordPress, you can enable it by these:
1) Edit your custom post type, in section "Sections to display when editing ..."
enable option "Page Attributes"
2) Edit each post of your custom post type, you will be able to see a metabox "Post Attributes", with input box "Order", there you can setup number values, and sort by it in your post view.
