to knoxville

well, we've moved out of our house in tx and into our new house in knoxville. i'm happy to report that i had no incidents while driving my 26' penske truck while towing our volvo behind. i figured, hey, this big yellow truck just screams "look out", so i just drove and expected people to be dodging me the entire time. our new house will be great as soon as we finish our work. i'll try to post before and after photos. last week, we did no unpack, but rather ripped up carpet and padding and tack strips, and ripped out dry wall and 2x4's. i'm now back in san antonio to finish out the month of july. kristen and meredith are still in knoxville and her parents are driving up this weekend. they'll be helping with the house including laying a hard wood floor, which i loaded in a uhaul trailer today. i'm meeting floyd in the morning in temple to pass the trailer to him. kristen, meredith, floyd and kay will all come back to san antonio some time around the 14th or 15th when i return from camp next week. it's all been very crazy, but at least the big move is over. now we have time for several weeks of last goodbyes and memories. while i was in knoxville i got my u.t. id card...now i just have to figure out how to cash it in for football tickets come fall. my building is right across the street from the stadium. anyway.
