Because of my job, I spent a year living in Muskegon Michigan… It was difficult, then the winters seem endless.
The temperature drops below freezing for more than more than five weeks. The conditions are freezing, snowy and windy. It’s mostly cloudy all year round, but even the summers are overcast and not overly hot. I rarely felt comfortable being outside. I didn’t think anyone in the town and was super bored. When I was looking for something I could do by myself without feeling awkward, I discovered that recreational weed is legal in Michigan. I got legitimately happy about going to see a local dispensary in Muskegon. I had never lived in a state where I had the ability to purchase cannabis. In Muskegon, all I needed to do was show my identification to prove that I was over the age of twenty-one. I was amazed by the amenities and products gave by the dispensary. The shelves gave an abundance of glass jars filled with colorful dried flower. There were all sorts of peculiar kinds of pre-rolled joints, blunts and cannagars made from full buds and sold in singles and packs. They were a legitimately affordable way for myself and others to try out new strains. I discovered that I legitimately liked the convenience of vapes. The dispensary carried both refillable and disposable carts in all kinds of flavors and potency! All I needed to do was push a button and inhale. There was no smoke, ash or smells produced. Tinctures were another favorite of mine. The compact packaging fit into my pocket and the included dropper was handy for dosing. Whenever I’d brave the weather and go for a run, walk or hike, I’d bring along a tincture to help motivate, energize or relax me.
