they were happy to have them. Two trips, it took longer to bag them then to deliver.

I have an old wooden rocking chair in the back of my minivan. I took it to Goodwill with some bags of clothes back in November. Goodwill took the clothes, but said that they don't accept furniture anymore. I want to give it to the other thrift store in town, but I don't know if they'll take it either. So, it's still riding around with me, keeping me company.
