We start our excursion to Hawaii this Friday. We’re driving west from CT stopping in Chicago, Kansas City, Denver, and Las Vegas to visit family and friends before we fly out of Los Angeles to Hawaii.

When in Chicago we are going to the Tinley Park rep show. My question is this- I have some random supplies that I don’t need to take with me, but I have no one here to give them to and I don’t want to just toss them. I have some red and white heat bulbs, about 2 or 3 lamp fixtures, 2 or 3 critter carriers, random sized water bowls (ceramic and plastic) and some climbing sticks. I called the Humane Society around me and they said that they really don’t have a need for any of it. I’m not going to drive 20 miles to give them 2 water bowls that they may use. Any ideas before I take off Friday morning? If I ended up packing them up, would it be odd to bring them to the reptile show to give away (not sell)? Or if there is anyone who is willing to drive to Groton, CT it’s all yours-donations accepted:). Any ideas? If I am going to pack them up, I need to do it now while my husband is out- he has a hard time believing my justifications to haul this stuff across the US with us. Thanks.

LOL! I went to school at KU- got 2 degrees and was out within 4 years! I can see how it sinks you in and won't let you leave. That's why my husband initally joined the Navy (he was born and raised in KS) he wanted to get out and see the rest fo the world other than corn and wheat!
