      All for the better. While we wait for cannabis stores to open in MN, it’s closer for most folks to drive to the UP rather than to Red Lake. Plus there’s more variety in the Ironwood stores

        It snows there from October to May, and there’s super bad black flies and mosquitos once it thaws. Only 3% of the Michigan population live there, and they’d prefer you not interfere with that.

        It’s a difficult place, short summers, long hard winters.

        UPers (you._purs) are an interesting lot. I’m not sure Wisconsin wants them, and they wouldn’t have it anyway if Wisconsin did.

          Canada used to fight over it when I was a kid.

          We only ever went up near there for the Pasties though, and to say we got in Superior.
