Last year the licenses for retail stores were issued before there was any product available from the licensed growers. This led to the situation of a supply deficit, which ran up the prices. The Liquor Board responded by issuing grower licenses twice as fast, which wouldn’t do a thing for that year. Of course adding […] It would be most silly for those in Washington to complain about the rain on the way; heck, anywhere in the west any moisture is welcome. Even if we on the west side of the Cascades get some rain, there’s a chance the storm will be just wind in Eastern Washington. That would not be […] I’m officially sprung from any follow-ups or check-ups, at least until Spring. Everything is healing up well, and I get my strength back everyday. The doctor removed a few drugs from my regimen, leaving just three essentials. That’s a lot of side effects I don’t have to put with. While I’m approved to hit the […] After seven years of eating rocks in Quartzsite, and the many alkali sand storms at Burning Man, I was running out of visibility in my truck. So today I had it replaced, which is surprisingly cheap and easy. Now I’ll be able to see the scenery again. Tomorrow I get a couple of truck tires, […] A few days ago I started sleeping through most of the night since the surgery, and that does wonders for recovery. I have a useful walking range now, and a lot more arm action is possible. But, putting my arms backwards still causes pain.

There are 458 licensed growers, most of which will be delivering their product into the retail market for the first time this month. Sales (I use “out-the-door” prices which includes the excise taxes) last month were $60 million […] It’s a challenge to name something with a bigger influence on cannabis laws than Hempfest, for 24 years now protesting marijuana prohibition. It runs this weekend in Seattle, along the waterfront; figure on hundreds of thousands attendees over the entire weekend. The irony of legal marijuana in Washington will not be lost at Hempfest: While […] Lifting anything significant is still out of the plan, but I can get up and do things for a few hours every day. Then, it’s resting for the rest of the day. By far the worst discomfort is my left thumb, which explodes in an electrical shock if I use it wrong. This is caused […] I’m still sore all over, so sitting all day during our annual meeting wasn’t real high on my list of things to do. But I survived, and the club seems to have survived, so I guess all is well. The kids came over this last weekend, and I’ve been getting a lot of hands to […] |
