From dried flower, pre-rolls and vapes for smoking to curative topicals and taste beverages, I continually find something new to appreciate
Although I’ve lived in Portland, Oregon, for nearly ten years, I never get tired of exploring the city. There is always something new to discover and fun to do. The people are especially friendly and the community thrives on weirdness. The historic downtown area is quite compact and easily walkable. There is a great riverfront park that is easily accessible from my apartment. I love spreading a blanket, reading a book and soaking up some sun for a few hours. Another favorite neighborhood in Southeast’s Hawthorne Boulevard. I can spend a whole day visiting the restaurants, bars, boutique shops and catching a movie. I sometimes venture as far as North Mississippi Avenue and treat myself to one of the many food cards, and I’m always a fan of the little cafes, shops and galleries found on northeast’s Alberta Street. I look forward to Last Thursday, which is a monthly street party that’s always a good time. Just about every Saturday, I make a trip to the cannabis dispensary. I feel very fortunate that recreational weed is legal in Oregon and that I have such easy access to a wide range of cannabis products. The dispensary carries all of the most well-recognized producers and popular strains. I can choose from sky-high THC-rich concentrates or full-spectrum CBD tinctures. Their menu of edibles is diverse and delicious. From dried flower, pre-rolls and vapes for smoking to curative topicals and taste beverages, I continually find something new to appreciate. I have joined the dispensary’s loyalty program so that I earn points for every purchase. I also save a little money by shopping the daily deals and specials.
