They cleared the shelves — and reopened the doors 👀
Good morning, Jackson County. Good news travels fast: that local cannabis dispensary that went dark during a state investigation is back open after regulators cleared the products involved. It's a notable win for a local business — and for anyone who was watching closely. On a more sobering note, a Wellston man was seriously injured Sunday after a motorcycle crash on State Route 788, a reminder to stay sharp out on these roads.
Globally, the U.S. and China just agreed to $60 billion in reciprocal tariff cuts — a small thaw in a long cold trade war — while Boeing's 737 MAX 10 hit another software snag. When you're ready for something lighter, Adult Game Night Scattergories, Fall Fest, and the Lonesome Cowboy Strangers are all coming up soon. Fresh Real Estate listings are inside too.
