When I saw that you were in Jacksonville I got a little excited and was gonna offer up my help ... however when I realized it was jacksonville "NC" I realized it wouldn't just be a drive down the street.
I live in Jacksonville FL...
you could always transfer to the Jacksonville that's a little further south
