They never miss my 6 ounce can of shaving cream, though.

I fly somewhat frequently and haven’t pulled out my bag of toiletries for several years.

I have a nylon strap belt with a nylon buckle. I got it mostly to wear when flying so there’s one less thing to take off.

Or my water!

Flying out of N.M. in Oct the TSA beech just knew I, an elderly grandma without even a parking ticket, was trying to blow up the plane (I fear flying because I FEAR bombs, crashes, mishaps, etc!) She went over my two Taos souvenir coffee cups with her wand checking for explosives! I wouldn’t know how, nor would I want to blow up ANYTHING! Then she used her magic wand on my New Mexico chili powder... as if these are very unusual items, souvenirs, from N. M.! I was on 2 canes, terrible back injury, elderly granny...

She had first asked me how to open my suitcase. It is a run of the mill suitcase, nothing fancy, she is an idiot! I showed her, then she said Please don’t touch your suitcase. She was just being rude and power hungry...

Then she said OK you can go...
BTW I had PRE CHECK and wasn’t supposed to have to take off shoes, take phone and computer out of bag, etc. She made me do all that and searched my bag...
She left it hanging open unable to be closed. There I was, using two canes, no way to carry my bag to a seat where I could REPACK IT...

I should have gotten her name and badge number and reported her!

and we have to fly there a lot because some of our family moved to Santa Fe.

I am to happy she isn’t getting paid!!!
