Help With Humidor

Well I can see how it would be awkward if it was a random family but I have known them my whole life. They are best friends with my parents and practically family. I used to babysit their kids when I was younger and we went on joint family vacations. I am going to hold off on doing anything and just ask him about it when they get back. The humidor is sitting out in plain sight so I didn't violate his privacy. It is sitting when you first walk in the door where it is painfully obvious. I don't think he would care anyways. As far as the picture goes it was just on my phone so it's not like I set up a photoshoot lol. I just wanted to see about helping him revive the dried up sticks as he has some really expensive ones that have dried out.
