At least they have legal weed in Portland


Yes there are still limits

I recently moved to Portland, OR for work. It wasn’t my ideal location to move to, but it serves its purposes. There are plenty of restaurants, bars and shops to frequent. I live right near a grocery store and a major highway that takes me to all sorts of different businesses. One thing I really enjoy is that Oregon allows for recreational cannabis. It is nice having access to legal weed. In my previous state I was stuck going the medical weed route. It wasn’t ideal. I had to fill out a bunch of paperwork, pay a fee and then wait two weeks for my medical weed card to come in the mail. With medical cannabis there are all sorts of restrictions with it. You can only have a certain amount and potency your doctor allows. Also, with medical cannabis, edibles typically aren’t allowed. You basically get prescribed a certain amount of flower or perhaps a tincture. Those aren’t my favorite methods of dosing. I just dealt with it in my state and renewed my card every year. I did the doctor’s appointment, paid the money and did the work. Now that I live in Portland, it is so nice that I don’t need to mess with all of that. I can just walk into a legal weed dispensary and get what I want. Yes there are still limits. You can’t just grab whatever you want off the shelves. But, I can just have my license swiped rather than see a doctor this time. Silver lining with this move.
