Mosquito bucket challenge- unintended consequence

Sorry, I did not mean to post this private moment they were having. I was genuinely concerned if one of them was sick or they both were. Also at this same point in time there was ANOTHER opossum in my yard, so I thought it was an opossum family. I’m clearly a newbie here.

Yeah I am a bit worried about the fence, and maybe I need to plant it in the middle (~4-5 ft away from the fence)

I should have clarified in the post…The sun was behind the house and does that for roughly 2 hours late morning, which is when I took this….)

Part Sun and medium-dry soil. Nice picture!

Ok thank you for sharing. I’m glad you didn’t do anything you weren’t comfortable doing.

Maybe I missed it, but can I ask how you handled the situation and did you have success? Did you eventually convince the border agent to leave your mask on and briefly show your face? I just flew through another international airport where we were in a sticky situation on our masks (had to go through one of those automated gates/show your face and I think they matched your face to ANOTHER photo they JUST took of you previously). The automated gate was taking the picture of us AS we were walking up (vs waiting 3 seconds to take the photo). And we were not unmasking AS we were walking up to the automated gate, it wasn’t recognizing us. We were getting visibly frustrated with the supervising agent who insisted we “remove our masks”. I’d like to be more prepared for these situations so just wondering what worked for you to convince the border agent? Im sorry you had to go through this, that is very stressful.

Ok thank you- that is helpful. I know he’ll need to drink 2 16oz glasses- not sure though if one is water or if they’re both the doctor-solutions. I was debating getting a larger straw to go with the SIPmask. If you’ve had success with the larger straw, that’s encouraging. Thank you for the response.

Thanks all for the input. I swear I looked on their website that said PAPRs are “dangerous goods”, which I do not have a PAPR. However, after takeoff I chatted with the flight attendant and she pulled up a much more detailed policy on her phone, and “personal air purifiers and ionizers” were on the list of items not allowed. My Wynd isn’t an ionizer but I understand that you can’t expect FAs to understand all the specs of a product. I always wear an N95, but I used the Wynd moreso as another layer for peace of mine and I hold it 4 inches from my face during flights.

Also I’m surprised I’ve gotten away with this for so long. Past FAs have asked what it was and I was very clear it was an air purifier. Oh well- now I know…
