Even though cannabis is quickly becoming legal all over the country, you have to understand the rules associated with consumption & public use.

As long as you’re of the correct age, you can purchase cannabis recreationally in 18 states in this country.

There are some limits to the quantity you’re allowed to purchase, but all the people would never exceed these limits in a single morning, let alone a week. Most of the time these rules are in locale to simply discourage people from buying the products at bulk prices everyday to offload them into the black market in neighboring states. As legal cannabis customers, it’s simple to assume that all of the people shopping at marijuana stores are there for wholesome reasons but that’s not the case unluckyly. That’s why there are limits on how much cannabis a single lady can purchase within a 24 hour period. There are also rules regarding public use of cannabis. Some are pushing to get allowances for corporations that have outdoor cannabis use, but it keeps getting rejected by both town & state governments. As of 2022, it’s illegal to smoke cannabis in public view in Albuquerque & the rest of New Mexico. However, people are free to smoke indoors & that gives allowances to lounges & cafes that want to cater towards recreational cannabis use. This is consistent with most municipalities where cannabis is legal for either medical or recreational use. I like to use cannabis when I’m hiking, but I know I’m taking a calculated risk that could wind up in me getting in trouble with the police. At least I can use it on our back porch separate from worrying about our neighbors protesting against it.

My partner and I are numerous old stoners.

Every one of us grew up in a midwestern corn town in the 1950s, however the people I was with and I both decided to head west to San Francisco when the people I was with and I started studying beat poetry and literature in the early to mid 1960s.

After staying on Venice Beach in Los Angeles for a year, the people I was with and I headed north towards the Haight Ashbury district of San Francisco to enmesh ourselves in the counterculture. This was a formative stage in both of our lives, and it’s a surprise to us both that the people I was with and I managed to stay together through it all. Every one of us broke up and got back together more times than I can count, although I can’t really say how much of that was drug induced at the time. By the mid 1969s I was enrolled in school to become a computer programmer while my partner started working at a cereal factory in Grand Rapids. Every one of us did okay for ourselves in western Michigan, however everything changed when my parents gave us their hour beach lake house Ann Arbor after they moved to Florida permanently. The lake house is on Plymouth Rd in Northside, and I couldn’t be happier with the location. Just care about so numerous other cities in Michigan, the access to marijuana in Ann Arbor is beyond my wildest dreams. It seems care about there is a weed store in every single square mile of the neighborhood from I-94 to M-14. My dad lives in Michigan Center, a small community towards the east of Ann Arbor in Jackson County. Despite being in such a small town, she says there are more than three separate marijuana dispensaries that are still in operation post-COVID. So numerous of the other dispensaries went out of company because they couldn’t compete in the large weed market here.

I live in Evansville Indiana and the climate here is way better than it was when I was in New York.

Basically when I was in NY it was snowy and cold 24/7.

In Indiana I have spurts of warmth and it doesn’t get that cold. There are a few days in the heart of winter that go deep into below freezing temperatures, but not enough that I worry too much. I have found that the ideal HVAC system for my area is a dual fuel system. I utilize a heat pump 90% of the year. Since my weather is so temperate I can use existing heat energy in the air for a heating effect. When it comes to AC, the heat pump simply pumps the heated air outside of my home. It is a cleaner, more efficient way of operating heating and cooling. I was worried about days in January that sometimes get into the 30s. A heat pump isn’t good with below freezing temperatures. There just isn’t any heat energy to push you know? So a dual fuel system is what I found works best. The heat pump combines with a gas furnace. It changes from electric to gas when it gets too cold. On freezing winter days, my gas furnace is tagged in. The system automatically changes on its own based on the thermostat temperature. I don’t need to touch a thing. My system also tries to be energy efficient too. So whenever possible I am getting a heat pump to work for me.

The best part of the year for a vacuum cleaner executive is the annual convention.

It is a huge turnout every year, with all the major vendors and companies being represented, and a series of speakers talking about the future of the industry.

It’s always very informative, and a great time for networking. That isn’t why we love it, though. We love it because it is three days where we get paid to drink, party, and meet new people. The trade show part of it is mandatory, but after hours we get to part in Las Vegas and do whatever we want. Being in Las Vegas is a reason to cut loose and do things you ordinarily would never do, which is why it is the best part of the year. I have learned that the first stop I make upon reaching Las Vegas is to find the nearest cannabis dispensary and load up for the weekend. I use the cannabis edibles during the day, because a) I can’t light up a joint in a Las Vegas casino and b) I don’t need my coworkers knowing how high I am. After the conference finishes for the day I go back to my hotel room, get blazed off locally grown Las Vegas weed, and then change into party clothes! When your whole life involves selling vacuum cleaners, you need to get really crazy once in a while, and Las Vegas provides a safe venue for that. I won’t say what I do, but I will say that the cannabis dispensary is the most legal part of my trips to Las Vegas.

There’a new dispensary in Forest Hill North that I love for their selection of fresh cannabis flower products.

Toronto is home to over 200 different cannabis dispensaries or stores. Marijuana is recreationally legal in all of Canada, but some of the small towns in Ontario that I lived in prior had at most three or four cannabis stores to choose from. When people think about amazing cannabis in Canada, their minds usually immediately jump to Vancouver because of its mythical status in weed communities. One of the first times I got to try marijuana when I was a teenager in south Ontario, it was BC Bud from British Columbia. It was so strong that it made me lust for Vancouver weed for the rest of my life. Although a trip to the oceanic city yielded some phenomenal weed pickups while I was there, much of the cannabis I’ve been smoking in Toronto has been almost as good. On top of that, south Ontario is home to most of Canada’s fruit industry because of its ideal climate and growing conditions. Between outdoor growing and indoor grow facilities, you can find phenomenal weed in Toronto if you’re willing to look. There’a new dispensary in Forest Hill North that I love for their selection of fresh cannabis flower products. I like to smoke sativas during the day because I work in IT from my apartment in Forest Hill North. Usually I will visit a dispensary that I love in York, but I’m happy to have another option closer to home. They’re open until midnight so I don’t have to worry about getting off my work shift too late to visit the dispensary. My cousin who lives northward in Pinkerton says that this is the worst part about living in a small town in southern Ontario—the hours at the weed dispensaries are limited.

When she asked me if I was interested in moving to the Tarzana area of Los Angeles, I was immediately intrigued and excited to get out of Florida at all costs

Before moving to Los Angeles, I lived in Florida for a number of years. People raved about the beaches and the pristine look of paradise and affluence in the communities along the coastline. However, unless you make enough money to live in a beautiful neighborhood, the remaining areas leave a lot to be desired compared to other places in the country. But the worst part about living in the swamp for me were the insects and the wildlife. I nearly had a heart attack the first time I came home and saw an alligator in my swimming pool. After calling animal control, they were able to remove the alligator and relocate him to a nearby nature preserve. Still, it left a fear in my mind that was only amplified when it happened again two years later! By then I had also seen my fair share of rattlesnakes both in my yard and on local hiking trails that I would traverse with my wife. When she asked me if I was interested in moving to the Tarzana area of Los Angeles, I was immediately intrigued and excited to get out of Florida at all costs. The first thing I did when moving to Tarzana was raid a nearby cannabis dispensary for a quarter of sticky Lemon Skunk flower buds to roll into joints. Then we set off for the Santa Monica Mountains, but not before my wife warned me about the rattlesnakes. In my ignorance, I had simply assumed that I’d be free of those nasty snakes after leaving Florida, but there are as many or more in the southwest!

When I moved to Seattle, I was already used to taking ferries with my vehicles.

I lived in Newfoundland for a while and there were many locations and islands like PEI that you could not access with a bridge.

It can be time consuming to account for ferry travel if you have a limited amount of time to get to a particular location. I know some people who have to commute for hours everyday just to get to the city of Seattle from the Olympic Peninsula. There’s a famous reality TV show about the K1 visa process and one of the stars lives in Sequim but works in Seattle. Until the pandemic closed one of the key ferries needed to get to the city, he was commuting three hours in each direction everyday. That meant six hours of his day was spent in his commut, almost matching the amount of time spent at work. He finally got an apartment in Seattle this year, but he was doing that absurd commute from Sequim for years. I decided one day to take the ferry to Bainbridge Island with my cannabis vaporizer in my pocket. Although public use of cannabis is not legal in Seattle or Washington as a whole, I sometimes use my vaporizer discreetly where I know I won’t affect other people. The ferry to Bainbridge Island takes roughly 35 minutes from Downtown Seattle. It gives me time to think and reflect on the day, especially if I’m stressed out from issues at work. Once I arrive on Bainbridge Island and exit the ferry in my car, I start using my cannabis vaporizer discreetly.

When I was young I dreaded going to illinois.

My parents both worked, and money was tight, so when the summer vacation came around they shipped me east to stay with my grandparents on their rural farm.

This way they didn’t have to worry about me being unattended while I was out of school and they were working. Summers on the farm were deadly dull, without much to do besides chores, and I hated having to go. The only thing I loved about those days was when my grandma would take me to Orland Park for a day trip. I know that Orland Park is not a major metropolitan area, but compared to that remote piece of farmland it was as good as Chicago itself. On the farm my grandparents only had a small, window mounted air conditioner, which needed a very specific kind of air filter. This was a long time ago, mind you, and we couldn’t buy a ten-pack of sturdy air filters at Walmart. We had to travel to Orland Park to get the air filters, and usually grandma used it as an excuse to take me out for ice cream, or to get new shoes. Orland Park had a movie theater and a shopping mall, and every kind of fast food I could think of, and I desperately wanted my grandparents to move there. After a while I started cutting holes in the air filters, just so my grandma had a reason to take me back to Orland Park, which is pretty crazy now that I think about it. .
