got you covered....
+ or - 30 miles from Memphis.
I'll try to remember to put my toolbox in my trunk. I work almost within "earshot" of I-40.

I've got you covered 1 hour either side of Knoxville. If your wife is an adventuristic type, grab some BBQ at Pup's on Walker Springs in Knoxville, I think it is exit 379. Where else can you buy BBQ out of a converted car wash? While you're there, they can detail your car! PM me and I'll give you my cell #

I hope you make it past me without trouble , but just in case, I'll send you my number.
Good luck on the drive. How far do you plan on getting the first day? You sure picked a good time of year to move south...unless you like skiing...

Long way......
I just used Google Maps to try to estimate Jack's journey. That's a LONG haul from Berks County, PA to San Antonio, TX. I had no idea it was over 1700miles.
I guess if he travels 500 miles a day, he won't make it to Memphis until Tuesday.

dunno 'bout yours, but on my keyboard the 'H' key is adjacent to the 'B' key... maybe a fat finger situation.
