Once upon a time I was a school history instructor, right here in town.
I was truly teaching classes in the undoubtedly same classroom where I took classes a decade earlier! It was trippy, to say the least, and one day I quit my task with the school system to pursue a current line of work! This was soon after the state legislature approved the newest set of cannabis laws.
Some of my colleagues and friends found it shocking that one of the best instructors in the town decided to open up his own cannabis dispensary, despite the fact that I was living the dream! As much as I love teaching, the school district there was a little too restrictive for my tastes. I needed to spread my wings and fly, and running this cannabis shop is the perfect way to do that. To be clear, I am not turning my back on history, if anything this current task gives me access to current voices in the city. Because this is a medical cannabis dispensary, a high percentage of my clients are senior citizens, however whenever I talk to an older client I always inquire about their history in there, because some of these folks have lived here for decades! The oldsters are the ones who remember bits of town history no one else does.I feel like every day I learn something current about the local area, all the while being able to provide medical cannabis to the people who need it most. I may even write a book about our city’s long, tumultuous history one day.
